Flight and Ground Instruction, Exam Prep
I’m a retired U.S. Air Force navigator with over 25 years of tactical airlift experience worldwide. After retiring from the military, I owned and operated a successful flight school near St. Louis for five years before selling it in 2023 and relocating to Florida, where I now enjoy semi-retirement and regularly fly my Piper Arrow. I offer flight and ground instruction for Private Pilot, Instrument Rating (IR), Commercial Pilot, and CFI/CFII candidates, along with Complex Endorsements. With both military and civilian flight training leadership under my belt, I focus on building safe, confident, and well-prepared aviators.
