With 2 parents involved in the world of aviation I don’t think I had a chance to be interested in anything else. I started flying U-control when I was 7 and made a transition to my first RC aircraft at age 13. Growing up in Hawaii I flew sailplanes for years before transitioning to the world of powered flight when my parents moved us to Illinois. I received my private pilot license in high school and graduated from Southern Illinois University with a degree in aviation flight operations / computer science. I continued to build and fly RC while pursuing a career as an airline pilot. Today I’m currently a Boeing 777 captain/check airman for United Airlines. I built my first ducted fan aircraft (Yellow A4) in the mid 90’s and followed shortly after with my first JetCat P120 powered Hot Spot. My first exposure to the JPO was back in the early 2000’s after I received my AMA turbine CD cert. Post 911 I took a 10 year break from the world of RC Jets. I spent a number of years actively working with standards organizations and the FAA to facilitate the safe integration of unmanned aircraft into the NAS. Somewhere around 2011 I reconnected with the RC Jet world and began flying my AD F16 and Hot Spot. I am currently working on my Skymaster A10 1.625 scale in Alaska air guard scheme and hope to have it flying this next season. I look forward to seeing you all at various jet events in the coming years!
