| Introduction | I literally grew up around airports. If I wasn't jumping a ride with my Dad, I was sitting in all and sundry cockpits at the local aerodrome. Inevitably I found my way into my own cockpits and have now been a commercial pilot for twenty years, accumulating around 15,000 hours of fairly diverse experience. Aviation has taken me all around the world, from Tiger Moths to 747s. I am also an aircraft owner and absolute enthusiast. My writings have featured in journals in both Australia and abroad. Amongst these, locally, I contribute regularly to Australian Aviation magazine and Flightpath, whilst I have had a number of features published in FlyPast in the UK. I have also consulted on technical manuals, both military and civil. Along the way I have been fortunate enough to pick up an Aviation Press Club Award and have my first book, 'Down to Earth' published in the United Kingdom. Today I find myself working on another book and again aviation history is at the core. All in all, it has been tremendous. I reside in beautiful Australia..... with an airfield just around the corner. |
