About the author

I grew up in small town America. My first exposure to flying was on an old DC-3 in the late 50's. Being fascinated by electronics and later computers eventually led to work in an avionics shop which led back to flying. Fate and medical problems eventually led back to computers, but aviation will always be my first passion. I hope you enjoy some of my memories of those years.
