I’m working hard to get my airplane back on it’s new tires and out flying again.  Angel Flight has been calling, and I promised to call them when I’m back. Also received two word of mouth calls to move cancer patients that I’ll do outside of that network – provided I get back online in time.

The later is an 80+ year old that needs to come out of Hilton Head, SC.  That flight will be a 7 hour round trip, but the older gentleman will only have to endure half of that to get to his front door. His kids think this will be a better mode of transport than going commercial or driving in his condition.

I know Matt will get through everything, but now I worry that I’ll get my KX-155 radio back from the shop in time. No update on that and it’s been about 3 weeks already.

Time will tell.

Fly safe. Hitting the simulator today to get ready.

Fully retired now, unless something interesting comes along. I’ve enjoyed a lucrative career as an Electrical Engineer, Certified Software Solutions Developer, and Project Manager. An excellent and fun career that I’m very proud of. I began flying commercially in Dash-8 aircraft for Piedmont Airlines, and moved on to instruct in the Gulfstream 280; WestWind; and Astra jet aircraft. I’ve also been blessed with a type rating in the B-25 bomber in a fortunate turn of events. My wife, Beverly, and I currently own and operate a beautifully restored PA30 Twin Comanche, which we use to explore the CONUS.
