I started building models when I was 9 and wanted to fly for as long
as I can remember. My father got a license in 1968 when I was 16 and
I got some lessons then. I crewed for him through the end of high
school. I actually got my own student license in 1985, private power
plane in 1987 and glider after I became an instructor in 1993. CFI-G
in 1996. A full-blown case of air-mind.
