Welcome to my all-about-flying page. I'm a FAA-Certified Airline Transport Pilot and Flight Instructor with (SE) single-engine, multi-engine (ME), and instrument airplane (IA) ratings.
I originally created this site to advertise my instructional services, but it's become more of aviation blog, documenting my experience in various facets of aviation. All of the content is created for your enjoyment and, perhaps, education.
I'm also part of the aviation community at Old Bridge, NJ (3N6).
Maintenance
If you've ever wondered what it would be like to own an airplane, check out my maintenance articles.
Travelogues
One of the things that attracted me to flying airplanes as opposed to shorter-range aircraft such as helicopters was the practical nature of using airplanes for travel. Read some of my travel adventures.
Reviews
If you're about to purchase an aviation-related product, check out this section to see if I've reviewed it first.
Miscellaneous
Sometimes I write articles that don't fit in any of the other sections, so I put them in here. Check out my grab-bag of articles!
Flight Instruction
I provide professional flight instruction to private owners of single and multi-engine aircraft. Email me to set up your next Flight Review, Instrument Proficiency Check, or other instructional session.
Checklists and Forms
Aircraft checklists and forms for pilots and aircraft owners I've developed over the years. All are free for the taking, but come with no support or warranty. Download at your own risk!
Aviation Links
Selected links I use on a regular basis including places to learn about how you can learn to fly, find an aviation-related job, keep up to date on the latest aviation news, and access official weather data and regulatory information, among other things.
