Pilot for a Day, memories for life

ROYAL AIR FORCE LAKENHEATH, England -- Jack Driver, 10, uses the controls inside an HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopter on the RAF Lakenheath flightline March 14, 2012. Driver, who suffers from Aplastic Anemia, a rare auto immune disorder where bone marrow fails to make enough blood cells, was selected as a pilot for the day. The Pilot for a Day program is new to RAF Lakenheath and provides children in the local community, who are fighting life-threatening illnesses or conditions, a day of fun as well as a break from the routine doctor and hospital visits.
