I'm a professional freelance pilot and aviation consultant. I am available for aircraft deliveries, ferry flights and flight training. I also provide safety pilot or copilot services on a per-day basis.
In addition to flying I also provide aviation consulting, aircraft purchase assistance, and aviation software.
Flight experience:
I have significant flight experience including large aircraft, 2-pilot flight crew, current simulator training, extensive international experience and North Atlantic crossings. I have flown many aircraft types including Cessna, Beechcraft, Piper, Mooney, single-engine, multi-engine, large aircraft, and glass cockpit aircraft. I hold FAA commercial, instrument and multi engine ratings, as well as a flight instructor license (CFI/CFII/MEI). I have no incidents or violations of any kind.
Aircraft maintenance experience:
I'm a licensed A&P mechanic with inspection authorization (IA). I have worked on a range of airplanes from General Aviation to radial engines to the latest commercial airline jet engines.
Training experience:
I have taught in many different settings and with a high degree of student satisfaction. I was training coordinator for a short time at GE's premier jet engine facility and have taught in formal classroom setting at a US-Peruvian bi-national center.
Education:
I hold a dual degree in Business Administration and Computer Information Systems from NC Wesleyan College.
