While lunch today @ the new Popeyes in Springdale, Ar. there was a young man sitting next to us who wouldn't shut up. We could hear his part of the conversation without any problem. The man he was talking to wasn't as loud, so I'm not sure who said it " Do you know (name unknown) who works at the Springdale Airport?" "Yes he's the pilot of the Duggars airplane".
So, doing a quick search it states that Duggar Aviation LLC owns the airplane that was purchased for John David Duggar (age 18) and he is now a licensed pilot. The plane was built in 2014, is a Cirrus SR22 4-5 seat single engine.
As I said, I promise....no more, besides, my head is going to explode....OK, I lied, there is 1 more story. The upcoming groom who is engaged now to Jessa, is living in the garage @ the Duggars and doing odd jobs for Jim-Bob. No wedding date has been set.
Quick....get me some Extra Strength something!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, not sure what the issue is here.
Jessa's fiancé was living four hours away from her. The move to the family home made it easier for them to make wedding plans and see each other.
As for the plane: John David can be a licensed pilot at his age. Given that the family is marrying and moving on, I would think that the plane is a useful purchase, to cut travel time. And he apparently plans to earn a living with those skills: he's heading to boot camp in Texas.

My brother had his private pilot license at 16 or 17, can't remember. I know he was still in high school though. He didn't have his own plane, but he wasn't a reality tv star either.

I wonder what it will be like for him to be thrust into such a "worldly" environment as boot camp will be? I suspect he'll do fine.
