Tim's first summer job was as a line boy at an FBO in San Juan, P.R. With an employee discount, he took a flight with an instructor and was hooked. Eighteen months later, he was a Private Pilot. He flew extensively to the U.S. and British Virgin Islands during that time. Life got in the way and he had to stop flying for about 15 years. When he picked it back up, he went on to obtain his Instrument rating, and then work interceded again. He moved overseas and lived in Europe, Africa, Australia and Mexico for another 17 years. Since returning to the States he has gone on to get his Commercial SEL and MEL certificates. He lives outside of Houston, TX and flies as often as possible.
