 Hi, I'm Captain Landon Grover, I'm stationed at Vance Air Force Base, Oklahoma and assigned to the third flying training squadron, flying the Mighty T-1 Jayhawk. My wife and I are both ski-17 pilots by trade and at our previous assignment we knew that if we wanted to stay together we'd probably have to come to a UPT assignment if we wanted to accommodate our joint spouse. To be honest I was a little apprehensive knowing that I'd be leaving a platform I was comfortable flying and transitioning to something that I only really remembered from my student UPT training days. While those nerves were quickly unfounded when I showed up at Vance Air Force Base I was met with tradition, camaraderie and a highly competitive team that made it an environment I knew I would thrive in. Since being advanced I've had opportunities ranging from being a flight line IP to a flying flight commander to even rewriting the T-1 syllabus and how we do pilot training to becoming a squadron evaluator. One of my favorite parts about being at Vance Air Force Base is not only that we get to train students each and every day, see new instructors, new fapes and new MWSIPs and I get to see them grow as people, instructors and even human beings. Knowing what I know now my wife and I genuinely can't think of a better place to spend our second or third assignment in our flying training career. While we thoroughly enjoyed the last three years we're very excited to give back to the MAF and AMC community.
