Is John-David still a pilot after his accident?
In case you missed the news, last year, it was reported that John-David had experienced a crash near Waverly, Tennessee. His wife, Abbie, and their daughter, Grace, were reportedly on the plane when it crashed. Fortunately, no one was hurt.
After the accident, John-David and Abbie broke their silence and cleared up what had happened. John-David claimed that the fuel gauge was malfunctioning. Because of this, he thought there was more fuel in the tank than there actually was.
Naturally, due to his accident, fans have questions about whether he’s still flying to this day. Plus, others are curious about which members of the family still have their licenses.
Which Duggar family members still have their pilots’ licenses?
Someone on Reddit dug up the details about which family members are still licensed pilots in Arkansas to this day. They discovered that John-David has a commercial license and is an instructor. Abbie is a student pilot and is unable to carry passengers for that reason.
Jeremiah Duggar has his commercial and instructor licenses. James is also listed as a student pilot who cannot take passengers with him yet. Finally, Josiah is listed as a private pilot. There are quite a few pilots in this one family!
Some Reddit users are curious to know why so many of Jim Bob and Michelle’s kids have chosen to become pilots. It’s unclear what prompted them to pursue this career. Others pointed out that they wouldn’t feel comfortable flying with one of the Duggars due to John-David’s accident. Josiah previously landed a helicopter on his parents’ property as well.

But pilots’ licenses can be found publicly, so fans could eventually find out.
