About me

I am EAA member #99884 and Young Eagle Pilot #4 and enjoy volunteering for Young Eagles Chairmen Cliff Robertson, General Chuck Yeager and Harrison Ford. I have won 3 awards at Oshkosh for restorng Best-in-class 1946 Ercoupe and won First Place & Peoples Choice at the National Ercoupe Convention. I have flown classics, warbirds, and high performance airplanes and have flown sail planes, Hangliders, Powered Hangliders and Ultralights. I started with a Rogallo hanglider in 1972. I became knowledgeable in electrical and mechanical processes, tolerances, safety, reliability and quality building and flying RC planes since grade school. I own a 1972 Jobe Rogallo Hanglider, Icarus V, (predacessor to the modern day ultralight), and owned 1946 Ercoupe(s). FOR HISTORIANS - Many famous people started out flying in an Ercoupe including John Travolta, Johnny Carson, Sam Walton and Pappy Boyington (Pappy's first GA airplane).
