I wish to thank the following companies for sponsorship and assistance during my flight around the world: MCW Associates, Aircraft Spruce, Ameriprise Financial, Classic Aero Designs, Odyssey Batteries, MFJ, Dynon Avionics, and Garmin for funding, equipment, and technical support.
General Aviation Support Egypt for their expertise to obtain permits, arrange handling, and provide 24h flight watch. Their network of agents around the planet is an invaluable resource for RTW pilots. Thank you, Eddie and Ahmed! The professional airline crews who helped relay messages on my behalf, when HF communications failed over the Pacific and Indian oceans. The pilot community from Vans Airforce, who quickly arranged a hanger at Maui airport (PHOG) while a Category 4 hurricane rapidly approached Hawaii. The heroes of Experimental Aircraft Association Chapter 1581, who helped me repair my plane in Trento, Italy. The many RTW enthusiasts who provided me with encouragement and tracked my aircraft over the vast Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific oceans. You were my wingmen. Comments are closed.
