Jack Wrighter

Volunteer Top Cover pilot Jack Wrighter has donated his time, piloting skills, and Cessna aircraft to the migration since 2005. He is retired from careers in aviation and education. Jack and his wife Judi have traveled the world, and they also built a log home on a mountain top in eastern Tennessee’s Cherokee National Forest.

Jack will be flying top cover duty for part of the migration.
