I've been close to aviation all my life. When I was a very young boy, my uncle, who was a private pilot, brought me into the cockpit and let me handle the yoke. It was a family thing, because my father was also into flying.

Favorite Place to Fly
My first transition to cruise...I had the time of my life.
During my years in the Army, I had lots of aviation exposure, though not as a pilot. And I loved it when my friend Bob got me airborne and asked where we should fly to for lunch today.
As soon as I joined Pivotal, I knew I just had to fly the BlackFly. Why should everyone else have all the fun?
Now I make a point of flying at some of the events we attend. I love being a member of the flight crew.
My dream flight? I have my sights on Sedona, Arizona.
To you, what is one of the most interesting aspects of Pivotal aircraft?
The unbelievable freedom of taking off from your front yard, the quiet, no fumes, and the simplicity of fly-by-wire "point and go" in the direction you're headed.
