     I am a pilot and I love to share my enthusiasm and passion for flying with anyone willing to listen.  Like most pilots, if you try to start a conversation about anything having to do with aviation, you'll never be able to get us to shut up!  It is a pursuit, a passion, a great challenge.  I began my initial flight training in May 1997, flying 2-3 times a week.  I did my first solo by the end of July and by November I was a certificated private pilot!

    Now, the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) has started a new mentoring program that aims to answer all of your questions regarding flight training and to provide a little help and encouragement from others along the way.  The first step you need to take is check out this website:

     Between AOPA's program and my involvement in the mentoring program, I hope we can get some aspiring new pilots off the ground here in Colorado!  Feel free to e-mail me directly or post your thoughts here.
