Why I am here...

I have thought about writing a book for a long time. Probably since 2003-04 while enrolled as a student at Carroll College in Helena, Montana. A professor there, a man who studied at Cambridge, who I greatly admire, suggested I may have some inkling of writing talent. As I explored this idea, I talked to a well known local writer who gave me some great tips about getting published. But beyond that, what I really took from the conversation, was his urging to least BEGIN writing something.

I entitled my blog "Life in the Air" to play upon both the busy reality of my life and fact I am a life long pilot. The purpose here is to ramble on endlessly about the varied and many humorous anecdotes I have had the pleasure of experiencing in my flying career. As I recall things I will write about them. I also will share new experiences as they happen and they may not all be funny, but they may prove interesting to the non-piloting audience. I hope you enjoy hearing these stories as much as have enjoyed living them.
