Vicky Kuo
Vicky, a mother of four, is a former researcher at Rhode Island
Hospital. After receiving a gift certificate to fly she began
flying about 30 hours a month. Soon, she was not only an excellent
pilot, she had found her life's passion. "It was just the
incredible feeling of taking off. It's hard to describe in
words," she said
From the start, she wanted to share this experience with others.
She knew that teaching was something she enjoyed. "I feel like I
have the opportunity to have an impact on aviation," she
said. Kuo wants to teach more than just the mechanics of
flying. She wants to introduce students to the greater world of
General Aviation. Many of her students are CFI candidates.
Even as she teaches she is working to develop her own expertise
and push herself to achieve more. She wants to be part of the
development of a strong General Aviation community. "Vicky was one
of my CFI students. There is no better success and achievement for
any teacher than watching his student accomplishing much higher
skill levels then he could ever imagine. It is a pleasure to see
Vicky to be able to provide such a high quality of aviation
education. I would like to thank her for allowing us here at the
Club to use her expertise,” said Radek Wyrzykowski the
President of IMC Club International. (Image provided by IMC
