BIO
I am retired and in addition to the usual retirement activities of working in the yard and garden, I do freelance writing. Thus far, the writing has focused on aviation themes. Airplanes have been a fascination since childhood. Growing up in a rural area with a wide-open view of the sky provided opportunity to observe air traffic from airliners high overhead to low-flying Cessnas and Pipers. Since the overlying airspace was a Military Operations Area, I watched in awe as jet fighters streaked by at near supersonic speeds.
More recently, I’ve have developed an interest in world history, specifically the era from WWI through the 1930s.
I’m a member of the American Aviation Historical Society and hold an FAA Advanced Ground Instructor rating.
