Nekoda grew up with a love for aviation, watching airplanes fly overhead and eyes glued to the airport as we would pass by. When I completed high school, I began working at the Mount Vernon Airport Authority as airport maintenance and I decided to make the dream of aviation a reality. I did all my training in Cessna 172s and loved every minute of it. My top priority is safety for myself and passengers. I currently fly a Cirrus SR-20 and a Cessna 172.
