Find out more about Allan: My professional involvement with aviation commenced in August of 1969 when I entered Naval Flight Training at NAS Pensacola Florida. I carrier qualified with the F-9, flew UH-1s with HML 267, flew the OV-10 with VMO-2. I flew for a company that has a very colorful lore in Cleveland aviation: Sundorph. I am now in the sunset of my aviation career, I don’t know how much flight time I have, I stopped keeping track of it a long time ago (It doesn’t matter any more) I have done just about everything there is to do in aviation. I flight instructed, I flew night freight in a Beech 18, I flew parachute jumpers in a DC-3, I flew canceled checks at night in Lear 24s, I was with the airlines. I now have the best position I have ever had flying airplanes, I am a corporate pilot for a Chagrin Falls manufacturing company, and the plane I fly is a Piper Navajo. |
