With over 44 years of accident-free flying in some of the most demanding circumstances, my aviation career has been challenging, rewarding, fun, and - at times - very lucky! While constantly seeking increased responsibility I've experienced a broad spectrum of leadership opportunities, and met an ever-expanding number of incredible people: Mentors, "wingmen," instructors, and friends. I'm ready for my next 20-year career. Flying would be great! But it's also a great time to pursue new challenges, and perhaps to pass on to new generations a few of my lessons learned.
