So that's what that guy did after "Tactical To Practical" went off the
air: went from making thinly disguised infomercials on the History Channel
to making thinly disguised infomercials on KCAL.


Hunter Ellis is an impressive fellow:

Host Hunter Ellis is a former Navy Fighter Pilot and carrier
aviator with over 2000 hours in the F/A-18 Hornet, TA-4J Skyhawk,
T-2C Buckeye, and T-34C Turbo mentor. Completing two Middle East
deployments in support of Operations Southern Watch, Desert Strike
and Desert Fox, Hunter made 433 carrier landings, over 100 of them
at night. He's qualified as an F/A-18C Flight Demonstrations Pilot
and Landing Signals Officer, and upon serving 10 and one-half
years with the United States military, he is currently a pilot for
Federal Express. Many may recognize Hunter as a contestant from
the popular TV series Survivor where he was a tribe member in
"Survivor: Marquesas."

Still, he's good at it.


This is the most professional and compelling GA piece I've seen.

He's got some good enthusiasm, and good material to work with.
