In this Jan. 4, 2017 photo, George Radashaw sits at the controls of a Cessna airplane simulator at West Michigan Aviation Academy in Grand Rapids, Mich. The charter high school at Gerald R. Ford International Airport was founded by Dick DeVos, a pilot and husband of Betsy DeVos, who is President-elect Donald Trump's nominee to be head of the U.S. Education Department.

DeVos faces a Senate panel considering her nomination on Jan. 11. (AP Photo/Ed White)
