A pilot in training is taking flight and sketching his love for BYU football, The Athletic writes.
LaVell Edwards Stadium is shown before the start of an NCAA college football game between Cincinnati and BYU Friday, Sept. 29, 2023, in Provo, Utah. He offers a written explanation on his YouTube channel for why he’s using the endless sky to relay his lifelong fandom.
And he loves the BYU Cougars. So as he inches closer to the 1,500 hours required to receive his airline transport pilot certificate and start his job with SkyWest Airlines, he figured he would use the last 150 hours in the sky to send a message to his team back home. And for two and a half to three hours of each flight, he cruises above the San Juan Islands, drawing the Y and adding a message on his way back:This week’s two-hour, 45-minute ride sketched “BEAT TCU,” as the 4-1 Cougars head to Texas to face last year’s national championship finalist.
In 2019, a Michigan fan trolled Jim Harbaugh with a tailing message behind a plane telling him it’s OK to throw on first down. The San Juan Islands, which feature 172 islands and reefs, is Class B airspace, so it’s basically uncontrolled. You don’t have to be on a flight plan. You can do whatever you want. Before Jonny Hubert decided to Fly the Y, he had been transporting construction workers to various islands.
Hubert, who attended BYU but did not graduate from there, came home before BYU’s Big 12 home opener against Cincinnati on a Friday night in late September. He didn’t have time to Fly the Y in Washington, so he started putting feelers out to see who could help him fly it over Utah Lake, just east of BYU.
