Jack was introduced to flying in 1989 by son Devin, who began washing planes for flight time at age 13. Before long, Jack, his wife Patricia, and Devin were all licensed and flying as one another’s co-pilots on weekends, vacations and then college shopping.
When Devin began flying for the Navy, Jack and Patricia left flying to see the world in their sailboat. During this time, Jack served as board member and president of another 501(c) organization with a worldwide cruising membership. After 53 countries and 11 years, they returned to the U.S. and also to flying aboard a Grumman Tiger.
