From my first Exec 152

To earning my CFI




To instructing up to three students in their Rotorway’s at the same time




To purchasing a new R22 Beta ll





To flying Medevac helicopters.

To teaching Dave Sparks (Heavy D) to fly his new Bell Jet Ranger

Dave purchased a Jet Ranger and hired me to teach him how to fly it. We flew it from Tennessee to his home in Salt Lake City.


We landed on a boat ramp on the way home to visit a buddy of Dave’s who was testing out a new model of boat his company was developing.








To Soloing Dave in his Jet Ranger.

---

Dave is a really great guy and friend. The last time we drove through Salt Lake City we stopped in and visited with Dave. He handed me the keys and invited me to take my wife on a tour in his Jet Ranger, We had an amazing time.

With all of my helicopter experience, this is what I own and fly regularly. I built it many years ago and have updated it with Joe Huff’s engine, cog drive, reversed landing gear, and governor.
