My First Solo Landing
My Shirt Tale (art work by Jerry Hajek)
After my first solo
I started flying in June 1998 at D&N Flying Club in Pearland, Texas (LVJ). This is what the airport looked like when I learned to fly there. My first flight instructor was Donald Palmer. But after a few lessons, he got another flying job and stopped teaching. My next instructor was Jerry Hajek. He helped me get through my private and instrument ratings.
In October 2000, I moved to Colorado Springs and started flying out of Classic Air at Meadow Lake Apt (00V). Currently, I fly and instruct out of Pikes Peak Pilot Center at Colorado Springs Municipal Airport (COS). They maintain a fleet of Cessna's and have the cleanest, most well maintained aircrafts in the Colorado Springs area.
I hold a Commercial Instrument Multi-Engine Land pilot's license and an Instrument Multi-Engine Airplane Flight Instructor certificate.

"Do not spin this aircraft. If the aircraft does enter a spin it will return to earth without further attention on the part of the aeronaut." — First handbook issued with the Curtis-Wright flyer
"The machine does not isolate man from the great problems of nature but plunges him more deeply into them." — Antoine de Saint Exupéry, Wind, Sand, and Stars, 1939
"Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing
wherewith we fly to heaven."
— William Shakespeare
