I grew up as a nomadic Air Force brat. Travel and Airplanes have always been part of my life. I am accustomed to many Arrivals and Departures.
My Blog is divided into 3 Sections Based on the slogan
“LIVING on a WING & a PRAYER”
LIVING on-Family
*I have flown through 33 years of life with my handsome wingman and husband.
*We have 7 children ages 35-19 and 4 grandchildren.
*I have Homeschooled for 31 years. Homeschooling fits around my husband’s ever-changing crazy schedule. Plus it allows us to take advantage of the free travel benefits, allowing the world to become our classroom.
*Meet Rachel one of my daughters she has been paralyzed since birth. She was born with Spina Bifida and Brain damage, because of her we have learned to live life to its fullest.
a WING–Aviation and Travel
*I grew up in an Air Force Family. Both my Father and Mother (Mom before I was born) were in the Military. Exploring new places and meeting new people is something I have always enjoyed.
*Wanta-be Pilot I planned on becoming a pilot not marrying one…must have been his good looks and that flight suit. I studied:
- Studied Aeronautical Engineering
- Persuaded my private pilots’ license
- Completed my Private Pilot’s Ground School
- Worked for Eastern Airlines
- Worked for SATO Military Travel
- Detoured aviation endeavors by 7 kids. The death of my instructor was the big reason why I stopped flying. I canceled my flight lesson at the last minute due to a miscarriage, and he crashed and was killed. I should have been with him on that flight.
*Wife of a Pilot He has flown
- In the Air Force, he flew the F-16, T-37, T-38, T-33 and is a Persian Gulf Veteran.
- Now he is a Commercial International Pilot. He has flown and has ratings on the DC-10, 737, 757, 767, 777. He currently is a Captain on the 757/767.
Ironically I met my husband at an airport when I was working for Eastern Airlines. He was on TDY and came into the airport to rent a car. It was love at first sight.
*Mom of a Pilot
My daughter has her Commercial Multi-Engine License and is a Certified Flight Instructor.
My daughter’s flying has inspired me to finish up that license I started 32 years ago…maybe she will be my instructor. I will blog about my training Stay Tuned
a PRAYER
My source of strength comes from the Control Tower in the Sky. “they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31
