Welcome to my home page

 

Guess I should tell you a little about myself.

 After spending 33 years in the aviation industry I have learned we are a small group of people. Somehow we all know each other; we run into each as we travel the World. If you don't know me you know someone I know, you have flown in and out of the same airports I have, or you have flown the same type aircraft I have flown. So if you like e-mail me and let me know who you are and if we know each other.
 Simultaneously for sixteen years I was a Police Officer in up-state New York retiring in 1986 at the rank of Lieutenant. Serving the public is a most rewording job that I hated to leave but I fully understood Police work on the street is a young person’s job.
 During that time I became a Real A State broker in the State of New York, work that I also enjoyed. The last job I retired from in 1995 was the airport.
 Now retired it’s time for hobbies so I developed an interest in computers , website design & building, I have been doing this since 1995 and enjoy this very much.
