What do you get when you mix a pre internet era stock market "boy" , with hospo work and the determination to become an aviation pilot? You get a person that has worked their way up through the nuts and bolts of the general aviation industry including working as an aircraft refueller at a regional airport, to flying in and around Darwin, a range of night freight routes in NSW to now work at a major Australian Airline operating as a Captain of the B737. Ladies and Gentlemen, please ensure your tray table is securely fastened as we prepare for departure.
