I am a retired Navy Airborne Electronic Countermeasure Operator (Active-jammed sam sites) I am a Vietnam Vet. With over 3000 hours of fleet op's in A-1 and A-3 Aircraft. I became a private pilot and advanced to Flight Instructor. I am currently a CFII with a commercial, single engine (Land & Sea) and Multi engine rating. As I am twice retired, I am available to instruct you morning, noon and night. I'm available to meet your schedule, provide flight and ground instruction and assist you in preparation for your written & medical exams.

Too old to learn to fly? Come see the old man. Too young to learn to fly? Come see the old man who is young at heart.

Flexible hours - attained all ratings at Squadron 2. Can assist and support your efforts at home study. Busy students are my specialty.

I started flying in the San Jose area in 1978 and first earned my Private in 1980. I have always enjoyed helping others become aware of flying and I am surrounded in my family by teachers so it was a natural step for me to become a "teacher of flight". As a CFI, I look forward to sharing my enthusiasm for the world of flight with others and unveiling the various ways we all continually learn and advance in this fantastic realm of aviation.

I have over 30 years of flight and training experience. Safety and patience are the keystones of my training style. Call or e-mail me about learning to fly.

• FAA Accident Prevention Counselor
• FAA Gold Seal Instructor
• Designated as Master Flight Instructor by the National Association of Flight instructors.

I offer private and commercial flight training, as well as high performance/complex endorsements and flight reviews. I challenge my students beyond the FAA requirements, in order to maximize their skills, confidence and safety. As one of my primary students you will fly through San Francisco's class B airspace, land at congested airports, engage in extensive instrument training, and study NTSB accident reports, in order to gain a better understand of the factors that lead to accidents and how to minimize your risk. If you are interested in having a lot of fun, while gaining experience that will prove to be invaluable in the real world, I have a program designed for you.

I started flying in the Bay Area, in 1990. After a short hiatus, I resumed flying in the late 1990's, and earned my CFI certificate. I teach part-time, usually early in the morning, before work, or on the weekends. I've been a member of Squadron 2 since 1997, and earned my Commercial and CFI certificates here. I enjoy flying tailwheel aircraft and aerobatics. Over the years I've competed in several aerobatics contests around California, placing 3rd at the Delano Aerobatic Contest in 2000. Teaching is a rewarding way for me to pass along my enthusiasm for aviation. I look forward to helping you turn your dream of flight into reality.

As a 2nd generation aviator I've spent my life around general aviation. I have traversed the U.S. in my award-winning Bonanza and have been featured in AOPA "Pilot" magazine. As an instructor my focus is on being safe, thorough, and using time efficiently to help you keep costs down. Already earned your PPL? Let's complete your BFR, high performance or complex endorsement, head to Tahoe for some mountain flying training, or learn first hand to fly a "Bay Tour." I also provide advanced ground and flight instruction for AOPA "Pinch-Hitter" program graduates. If you're finally ready to take the plunge and earn that Private Pilot certificate, give me a call.

• Instructor for all airplane-land Pilot Certificates with experience in 35 make and models
• Over 90% of my clients get their license on the first try and close to minimum hours
• 1000s of hours of experience with pilots of all levels, ages, and backgrounds

I've been flying since 1973 and teaching since 1977. I have over 3000 hours of teaching and this my full time business since retiring from GE in 1991. I'll never make the airlines, but I do love flying and teaching. If you have always had the itch to fly, make it a reality. I did! I can teach you to fly; I have the maturity and experience to make you the pilot you always thought you could be.

I have been instructing in the Bay Area now for over 10 years. I love teaching private pilot students and getting people back into the air that have not flown in many years to rekindle their love of flying. I have logged over 4000hrs in the skies and I have worked as a Cargo Pilot, Corporate Pilot and even lived in Hawaii for a short time flying interisland for a Commuter Airline. I currently work as a Corporate Flight Specialist for a division of the Boeing Aircraft Company in San Jose with a very open schedule for teaching students to fly on my days off. I am very easy going and patient so please give me a call if you want to learn to fly!!
