No one in my family flys or flew.

For my 7th birthday, I got a 15 minute ride over my home town, and I
"KNEW" I wanted to be a pilot. I watched "Sky King" every Saturday
morning on TV, then whirly birds, then ripcord, then sea hunt... but
that flight and Sky King is what turned me on to flying.

Unfortunately, we were dirt poor, living near the indian territories
of the north woods of Wisconsin... and this was never going to happen.

"Never say never"!

Fortunately, when I was 10 years old, my family moved to Colorado, and
I got a good college-prep and college education, got my first real job
and learned to fly in Cheyenne, Wyoming. I'm glad I did! Flying is
the best thing that has happened to me in my lifetime!

Best regards,
