I, like many aviation enthusiasts, dreamed of flying and aircraft ownership. While very young I thought I would be seeking a career in aviation but it was during high school it became clear my talents lay elsewhere. Still holding on to the idea of flight I trained and received my private pilots certification and pursued this goal. But as we all know our lives are driven by external forces and life gets in the way of many of our goals. Marriage, starting a business, building a house, family etc., are priorities that require the very time and resources needed to realize your passion. But I was patient, stayed focused and am now within reach of puttering around California in the air. So enjoy this website and the documentation of this project, modest as it might be, as a small effort with a small plane realizing a big dream.
