Captain's Blog
After a lifetime of being an aviation fan & armchair pilot, I've decided it's time to set aside the toy planes for a while and try my hand at the real thing. Let's face it, I'm not getting any younger, and time and tide wait for no man. So, let's grab the bull by the horns because there's no time like the present, there's no place like home, and there's no use crying over spilt milk. And other assorted clichés. So join me, if you will, in my attempts at being a genuine airplane driving type guy.... errr.... pilot, thingy.

05/03/2025 - Sadly, I never kept up with the blog, though I did get my private pilot's license on April 15th, 2008, which would have been my dad's 80th birthday. If he had still been with us.
