---This is a book/CD of flying memories prepared to help celebrate the 100th anniversary of the first airplane flight.

--- It tells the story of a unique set of circumstances in which a young and inexperienced aviator was thrust into a position of incredible responsibilities and challenges, and of the efforts made to rise up and meet them.

---Catch The Wind is an autobiography describing the early flying career of one new pilot during the period from 1968 to 1973.

---As these stories will show, this was a much more loosely regulated flying era which was much different from the tightly controlled aviation world of today.

---This was a lost era of aviation – loved, remembered, and greatly missed.

---This book/CD, in addition to being the story of the life and adventures of one new pilot, could also be considered a flying textbook – filled from cover to cover with aviation information and history – and loaded with flying trivia and traditions for all those interested in the fascinating world of aviation – all written in plain language for pilots and non-pilots alike.

--- Being a pilot was a lot more fun in those days.

---We were considered by many to be the All-American Boys, and our actions were rarely questioned or challenged.

---A certain amount of adventurous spirit was expected of pilots, and, was admired by many.

---These are the very personal memoirs, begun on the 100th anniversary of powered flight, of one young man, born in the post World War II baby boom era, who fulfilled a boyhood dream of learning to fly, and of the events and people encountered in the world of aviation.

---This book is also a nostalgic look back at an age of innocence, not only on the subject of aviation, but, also on the subject of life in America in the 1960’s and 1970’s.

--- It was an age of wonderful freedom.

--- As these stories will also show, nowhere was this freedom more apparent than in the world of aviation.
