Congratulations to Kevin Baldwin on receiving the Write Brothers Master Pilot Award!
Kevin Baldwin will be honored with a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award during a ceremony on Friday, May 8 at the Hartford Jet Center at Brainard Airport, 20 Lindbergh Drive.
Hosting the award ceremony at Brainard Airport is particularly meaningful because it was Baldwin's original airport home base when he received his FAA-issued pilot certificate in 1970. Years later, Brainard Field was also the final airport home base for his four-seat Piper Cherokee Warrior.
The Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award event will begin with the Fixed Base Operator giving a brief history of Brainard Airport, where Charles Lindbergh started his U.S.A. goodwill tour flying his Spirit of St. Louis airplane after his famous and historic transcontinental flight to Paris, France. Baldwin will then receive the Award, followed by a reception with light refreshments.
Established by the FAA in 2003, the Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award honors pilots who have demonstrated 50 or more years of safe flight operations, recognizing their longevity, skill, professionalism and dedication to aviation safety. The award is named after Orville and Wilbur Wright, pioneers of powered flight.
