The Tippin Aviators

In the 1980s, Aaron Tippin had his heart set on becoming an airline pilot and airshow performer. Just before he took his ATP checkride, the economy took a downturn and airlines weren’t hiring, so he turned to country music where he became immensely successful. His achievement allowed Aaron to reconnect with his love of aviation, warbirds, and family. This is the story of three generations of Tippin aviators and a beautiful SNJ-5C.
