Never really had the desire to go into the majors or into heavy
charter. I loved primary instruction and later on into War Birds,
acro, and acro instruction; a lot of private tutoring to (rich :-)
individuals with their own airplanes.



I didn't either, but I was starving to death! The big ones are fun in
their own way. Not so much anymore though. Even in the sim, the
autopilot is on most of the time.

I was lucky I guess. Got hooked up somehow with the "rich set" and
developed a VERY substantial private instruction business. Got to fly
more high powered "toys" than I could ever have afforded to fly
myself.



You were!

Of course, you'd flown them before courtesy of uncle sam..

Did you know Gordon Van Kowneberg, BTW?
