I’ll never forget the moment my wheels left the ground—alone. Flying a restored Piper Cub, I felt every vibration, every gust of wind. It was just me and the sky. That day, I didn’t just fly—I became a pilot.

My Grandfather’s Mustang
I grew up hearing stories about my grandfather flying a P-51 Mustang in WWII. Decades later, I got to fly a fully restored one. When the engine roared to life, I swear I could feel him there with me.

Over the Alps
Crossing the Alps in a 1940s Yak-3 was breathtaking. The peaks below, the sun above, and the hum of the propeller—pure harmony. It wasn’t just a flight; it was a journey through time.

Learning from Legends
As a young pilot, I was mentored by an 82-year-old who flew during the Korean War. He taught me not just how to handle a plane, but how to respect it. We flew side-by-side in matching warbirds. Unforgettable.

Engine Trouble at Sunset
While flying a vintage Beechcraft, the engine sputtered. I kept calm, followed training, and landed safely in a farmer’s field. That farmer brought tea, and we watched the sunset beside the plane. Scary, but oddly beautiful.
