About the Author
I began flying at sixteen, and soloed for the first time three months after getting my driver’s license. My private license came at 18. Since then, I’ve flown over 20 different types of aircraft, from Cessna 150′s to high performance jet fighters to commercial airliners, and through that career have found myself drifting time and again into teaching and writing about how to learn aircraft systems and preparing for check rides, oral examinations, and simulator and flight checks. Amassing over 18,000 flight hours along the way, I’m hoping you will see a degree of professionalism and credibility as you look through the guides’ features.
I retired in 2018 and continued already-on-progress work on a PhD in History of Ideas. On completion, I hope to teach at the college level and start a third career.
