CIVILIAN ACHIEVEMENTS

I spent 32 years in the service of American Airlines, retiring in 1998. During those years I flew extensive flights both in domestic operation and international operations in South and Central America, and in the Caribbean. I have been trained in the Airbus operation into high altitude airports. I FLEW THE B-727 FOR ALMOST 21 YEARS, TEN OF WHICH WAS AS CAPTAIN AND WITH INTERNATIONAL FLYING. I HAVE ABOUT 21,000 HOURS IN THE AIRCRAFT.

Awarded numerous trophies for airshow performances.

While owner of Weed hopper Ultra flight, Inc….built, test flew, and trained over 50 students to fly the aircraft I had sold them.

RECENT OR CURRENT OPERATIONS IN PROGRESS

While owner/operator of Venom/Mig-17 Jet Acro, Inc., I was “chief cook and bottle washer” for the total operation, including all maintenance, record keeping, marketing, test flying, and airshow performances as well as instructing in both the MIG-17 and Venom, jet fighters.

While owner of Jet Executive Worldwide, LLC I have acted as President and CEO and Chief pilot. This is a startup executive airline and status was halted for lack of funding. I had developed all paperwork, including business plans, executive summaries and spread sheets and maintenance.

While owner of Diamond Aircraft Brokerage, LLC, I had been pursuing the brokerage of heavy aircraft to foreign nations.

As author of FEATHERS AND THE GOLDEN SPRUCE TREE, a children’s book published by Author House and available in hardback and soft back through Amazon.com, Barnes and Nobel, and Borders, marketing continues to bring in profits. Eight more books are soon to be published.

I am presently typed and current in the CE-525 and as a single pilot in that aircraft. I have many good recommendation letters while flying this aircraft.

I also have about 1000 hours left seat time in the Citation X in which I am typed but not current. I can provide an excellent recommendation from a Check Airman/Instructor from Netjets as to my attitude and performance with a corporate operation.

***

I have built such aircraft as the BD-5 and restored the Venom fighter and the Mig-17. I am a writer of 8 books, ONE published, 7 to go unpublished at present, but close.
