Please join me in congratulating Adam Midkiff in obtaining the concorde rating here at DVA! I believe less than 100 pilots have ever obtained this rating here at DVA. Adam flew a near perfect check ride scoring 99 out of 100.

This is a major accomplishment so please join me in congratulating Adam on this achievement!
