Instructor Bio
Hi, my name is John Paul, but to friends I am JP! I have been around aviation my entire life one way or another. Growing up in Peachtree City, GA, my family was always working for Delta Air Lines and after attending college at the University of Georgia (Go Dawgs), I continued that tradition by working as a photographer with Delta and getting the opportunity to travel the world!
After a while, photographing new Airbus’ come off the line and spending time in one of the biggest maintenance facilities in the world, I really wanted to give aviation a try.
I moved to Seattle where I continued to work as a photographer for a time, but eventually decided to complete my flight training in Denver, CO. During my training, whether I was flying, biking, skiing, or hiking, I was above 10,000 most of the time.
I’m excited to continue my aviation journey with Rainier Flight Service, and hopefully get you started on yours!
