We first met at Ft. Rucker, AL during an "intense" training we had to complete prior to starting flight school. Rayanna ended up having a pretty rough time during the training, but Cameron was very chivalrous and "saved" Rayanna from some punishments during that training. Fast forward a few weeks and we ended up in the same Primary Flight Class. Months went by where we got to know each other by being in the same class and trying to learn how to fly the metal death traps we know to love today. One evening Cameron asked Rayanna if she would like to study with him and his roommates for a test we had in class. After the study session, Cameron took Rayanna on their first date... to Waffle House! It was delicious! A month went by where we spent more time together, but it was time to go to our hometowns to spend Christmas with our families. Although it was only a couple of weeks apart, it felt like an eternity! We both planned to head back to Ft. Rucker just after New Years. Cameron surprised Rayanna by flying into Indianapolis, IN. Rayanna picked Cameron up and headed to Nashville, TN to celebrate New Years Eve together! New Years Eve 2018 was a start of our crazy journey. In the spring of 2018, Cameron found out that he would be stationed at Ft. Wainwright, AK. We know it seems crazy now, but Cameron was absolutely NOT happy about it. Rayanna decided to go with him to continue to grow and build the relationship and for new beginnings. We spent 7 wonderful months in Alaska, exploring every chance we got! On June 26, 2019 Cameron was able to hop on a flight that Rayanna was flying north of the Arctic Circle. We had 8 other passengers on board that day doing a routine flight we get tasked with regularly in the summer. There was this very steep hill on top of the mountain that we landed on and Cameron insisted that we hike up it. Of course, Rayanna was tired and hangry so she wasn't too happy about it, but she did it anyways because of all the times she has landed there, she had never been to the top. Once at the top, it was such an amazing view. Everyone on board had even hiked up there since we were going to be on the ground for a few hours. Cameron, of course, lugged his 50 pounds of camera gear up that hill. So he set up taking pictures while the rest of us explored.... or so we thought that's what he was up to. Eventually Cameron was tired of Rayanna wondering around so he tricked her! He asked her to come over to the tallest peak because you could see the aircraft from up there and continued to tell her that "there is something on top of your aircraft! What is it? What is on the aircraft?" Freaked out (because she didn't want to get stranded in literally the middle of no where) got on top of the rocks and the next thing Rayanna knows... Cameron is down on one knee, on top of the world, asking her to spend the rest of our lives together! The rest has been one crazy adventure that never stops. And we wouldn't trade it for anything.
