Most fathers and sons share common knowledge and it is a long tradition that fathers pass on their skills to their sons. As the son of a naval aviator many of my dad skills were passed down to me. My dad taught me how to fly and encouraged my interest in aviation. It started as a child my dad had flash-cards of all the potential enemy aircraft from his A-4 Squadron then the A-7 Squadron.

Every time they got a new aircraft, my dad and those pilots got a new deck of cards and I kept the old ones studying them from every angle like my dad, sketching them and learning everything on the back, range, speed, attributes, propulsion, everything. Of course my fascination with aircraft did not stop there.

I built every 1:72 scale model ever made over an 8-year period. It is truly amazing how the Cold War was much about our Germans VS their Germans after WW II. Of course von Braun and company came here, but Russia, they also got a bunch of rocket scientists, luckily for the USA, we had capitalism to hyperspace their stuff, but the CIA and the US had been infiltrated along with the British Spy agency and there were few secrets and lots of misdirection and skeptics.

Today I have designs of my own, sketches and new concepts and I love to fly. I certainly hope this article is of interest and that is has propelled thought. The goal is simple; to help you in your quest to be the best in 2007. I thank you for reading my many articles on diverse subjects, which interest you.
