All those places above were a great experience but honestly, a domestic flight to Teterboro or anywhere less than three timezones away would be fine by me — so please don't wait until you have a trip to Timbuktu to call.

Former Gulfstream Instructor
...who still doesn't know it all. But as a former simulator and ground instructor for Gulfstream aircraft at Flight Safety™, I have worked with hundreds of great professional pilots and have tried to learn a little something from every one of them. There's a wealth of great people in the Gulfstream world.
All Continents, All Oceans, 50+ Countries
It's not the same everywhere. Maybe I already know the local handshake. Maybe you do to, so I'll be there backing you up while you haggle with the locals.
I understand English in numerous dialects, including ICAO, which I speak fluently, so as not to embarrass my associates in the cockpit.
No Accidents, Incidents. No Tickets
Scratch that last part. I received my first traffic ticket after 40 years on the road. Darn. Otherwise I have never scratched, dented or damaged anything with wheels or wings. And I intend to keep it that way.

Three words to live by in this business although maybe not 80% of the job. But you can count on me to be there on time.
Cockpit Etiquette
You know...those little unmentionables that are so irritating when you work an arm's length away from someone. Enough said? Let's just check this box and move on.
My home base is Fort Lauderdale, Florida, U.S.A. (GMT-5) There are three major airports nearby (KFLL, KMIA, KPBI) with hundreds of economical flights to where ever you need me.
