#JamaicaGleaner #Deaf #SignLanguage #Pilot #Plane JULY 15, 2022: �I feel like I would do it again.� Those were the words signed by 16-year-old deaf student Rolando Grant, moments after he completed a flight experience across sections of Kingston and St Andrew on Wednesday. Rolando�s story was highlighted by The Gleaner on July 5, after missing out on face-to-face and online classes for two years due to an unissued birth certificate. Co-founder and director of maintenance at the Aeronautical School of the West Indies (ASWI) Christopher Gooding told The Gleaner that a student shared Rolando�s story with him and he decided to foster his dream by providing him with a flight experience with an instructor.
