Flaps? Check. Fuel level? Check. Oil level? Check. Propeller? Check.

After a lengthy pre-flight safety inspection process, an aircraft is deemed “airworthy.”

And so is Kris Frost, a sophomore in Aviation/Professional Flight Management at the Auburn University College of Business. He is one of roughly 100 students involved in the program – the second-oldest such program in the nation.

“Flying isn’t scary for me,” said Frost, just moments before preparing Wednesday afternoon for a 90-minute flight from Auburn University Regional Airport. “But I am afraid of heights. You just don’t feel like you’re up in the air up there.”

Hope he can fly around the field, crash in to, and burn some opposing ball carriers.

If he's smart enough to fly a plane, then he should be smart enough to understand defensive calls.

If he can dodge a wrench he can dodge a ball.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."
