Other_Info: I went to community college for two years right after High School. I then joined the Army as a Warrant Officer Helicopter Pilot. I was stationed at Ft. Rucker in Alabama for Training, then went to Ft. Ord in California for two years. I was then assigned to Korea, and lived in Seoul for another two years. Upon separation from the Army, I moved back to the Tacoma area to finish my degree in Professional Aeronautics from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. I then joined the US Air Force, and attended pilot training in Phoenix, AZ. From there I flew EC-135s at Ellsworth AFB near Rapid City in SD. With the fall of the Berlin wall, my unit's mission went away, and I was transferred to fly EC-130s at Davis-Monthan AFB in Tucson, AZ. After 8 years of being in the Air Force, an opportunity presented itself, and I found myself as a Civilian. I was hired as a Flight Engineer for a small freight company, and I flew in Europe for six months. Then, I got my "Big Break!", and was hired by Delta Airlines. I've flown as a Flight Engineer on the 727, moved up to the First Officer seat on the 727, and, due to retirements of the aircraft, I'm moving to the Boeing 737.
