Brothers with Cystic Fibrosis become pilots for a day

Zachary Reese, Pilot for a Day, looks out the window of a Piper P-31 flown by the Wings of Hope program pilots May 31. Zachary, 15, and his brother, Clayton Reese, 18, were born with Cystic Fibrosis, which resulted in frequent lung infections that are treated with antibiotics and other medications, became pilots for a day May 31, through the Pilot for a Day program. This program brings chronically ill children to the base for a tour, as well as a chance to ride in one of the Wings of Hope aircraft. (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Jake Eckhardt)
