And little goals kept me going along the way, and eventually I got my private pilot's license, and then I learned to navigate, and I flew my friends around Australia. And then I learned to fly an airplane with two engines and I got my twin engine rating. And then I learned to fly in bad weather as well as fine weather and got my instrument rating. And then I got my commercial pilot's license. And then I got my instructor rating. And then I found myself back at that same school where I'd gone for that very first flight, teaching other people how to fly, just under 18 months after I'd left the spinal ward.
And then I thought, "Why stop there? Why not learn to fly upside down?" And I did, and I learned to fly upside down and became an aerobatics flying instructor. And Mom and Dad? Never been up. But then I knew for certain that although my body might be limited, it was my spirit that was unstoppable.小小的目标让我一路坚持，最后我拿到了私用飞行驾照，然后我学会导航，载着我的朋友飞遍澳大利亚。然后我学会了驾驶双引擎飞机，通过了双引擎飞机驾驶考核。然后，我又学会了在坏天气与好天气下飞行，通过了仪表飞行考核。然后，我取得了商用飞行驾照。接着，我又拿到了飞行教官执照。后来，我回到了我最初学习飞行的那所学校，教别人飞行，当时我离开脊椎病房还不到十八个月。
然后，我想：“为什么要停下来呢？为什么不学习倒飞呢？”所以，我去学习了倒飞，成为一名特技飞行教官。我的爸妈呢？从来没坐过。但我确切地知道，尽管我的身体有局限，我的精神却是不可阻挡的。
