The idea for"Catch The Wind" was conceived on the 100th anniversary of the Wright Brothers first airplane flight.
**
The book is the story of the life and thoughts of a new and inexperienced young pilot thrust into a world of incredible
challenges and of his efforts to meet them.
**
"Catch the Wind", in addition to being 300 pages of pilot memories, could also be considered an aviation textbook - - filled from cover to cover with
valuable aviation information, traditions, history, legends and folklore.
**<
The book was originally published for distribution only to family and friends, but, after the very positive and enthusiastic response to the unique stories, the book is now available to the public.
**
Some of the stories in "Catch the Wind" highlight the huge differences between the almost unregulated aviation world of earlier days as compared to the rigidly enforced FAA Regulations following the events of September 11 - 2001.
**
The events described in this book could never be repeated today.

(People, especially young people, sometimes do
very foolish things.
**
Unlike military flyers, civilian pilots don’t get the
chance to prove our bravery in combat.
**
However, we still like to complete our missions as
planned and don’t like to fail.
**
Sometimes, during periods of great challenge, in
order to complete our flights, we may push ourselves
beyond the limits of reason and caution.
**
We try not to let this happen, but sometimes it does).

This chapter is loaded with valuable information on instrument flying, the Air Traffic Control System, the
dangers of flying in icing conditions, and much more.

(EXCERPT)
"The next day, I took Nicole for a ride in the Twin-Commanche.
Chateau Frontenac Hotel - Quebec City
We flew over the Chateau Frontenac, the Old Town, and the St. Lawrence River.
**
**
She was absolutely exuberant and excited.
**
I let her fly the airplane from the co-pilots seat.
**
It was obvious she was very intelligent.
**
She learned quickly and was soon flying very well.
**
We shared some intimate moments while the autopilot flew the airplane high over Quebec City.
**
I made the landing with Nicole following me through on the controls.
**
Afterwards, she was so excited it took a long time for her to calm down.
**
Although always affectionate, she was particularly warm and passionate in our hotel room that night."
My Beautiful Nicole
