About the Badger pilot

Welcome to The Badger Pilot—a YouTube channel offering an honest, unfiltered look into the world of general aviation. I’m Andrew, an instrument-rated private pilot with the goal of becoming a CFI. Through this channel, I document my journey in aviation—sharing the highs, the challenges, and everything in between.

You’ll find videos that reflect the real GA experience: first solos, checkride prep, unexpected maintenance issues, and the occasional mistake I’d rather not repeat—but I share it anyway so others can learn. My goal is to give viewers a front-row seat to the realities of flying, from the thrill of takeoff to the lessons learned when things don’t go as planned.

If you’re training, dreaming, or just curious about life in the left seat, I hope my experiences help guide, encourage, or even just entertain you along your own path. This is a place for real pilots, real flying, and real growth—one flight at a time.
