It's a tradition in flying circles that after a student's first solo flight, the back of their shirt is cut off. The date, their name, and the plane's identification number are then written on the removed fabric, which is usually pinned up on a wall with the shirt backs from other students. The first solo is a significant milestone in learning to fly, as it displays enough control and knowledge to fly as Pilot In Command.

TLDR: I think Donnie should get to fly planes.

Bonus: the plane (without Donnie or the slight lens blur)

i was not gonna spend a bunch of time figuring out how to draw a plane though so i just traced a picture lol (with a few alterations)
