Kim, 16, a sophomore at Landon School in Bethesda, Maryland, brainstormed with his family in McLean, Virginia, about ways to keep active, and to serve the community while he had the time. They settled on Operation SOS — Supplies Over Skies.
The goal, he said, is to make deliveries to all seven rural hospitals in Virginia defined as critical access hospitals. The flights will become progressively longer. If all goes according to plan, the final flight would take him to Clintwood in far southwest Virginia. “For TJ to be more concerned with the needs of others in his melancholy state just reiterated to me how amazing this young man is.,” Powell said.
“After I landed, all I could think about was going back up,” said, TJ, who hopes to attend the Naval Academy and ultimately become a pilot.Indeed, his flying is farther along than his driving. His preference for flying over driving is clear.
