And just because of time and money, it took a while to get my license. I got it in 97, and then I had no more reason, and really, money to do anything with it, so I kind of set it aside and didn\u2019t pick it up for 15 years. Then in 2011, kids really is the reason why I started flying, it\u2019s just to get more time with my kids. You get an extra like 12 hours basically, which is a long time when you\u2019ve got three kids. I mean that\u2019s a whole other night to put \u2018em to bed, a whole other morning to make breakfast and do school. And then you come in the gig fresh, and you get a chance to fly, which I really enjoy.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"video-shortcode embed-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"610\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KPWZ2NvrmB8\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dierks Bentley has been a licensed pilot for over 25 years.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":93981,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[464],"tags":[8940,10237,5925],"class_list":["post-100822","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-dierk-bentley","tag-flying","tag-pilot"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-10 15:40:04","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/cknx.ca\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2024\/10\/dierks-bentley-has-been-a-pilot-for-over-25-years\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100822","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=100822"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100822\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":100823,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100822\/revisions\/100823"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/93981"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=100822"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=100822"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cknxam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=100822"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
