I am the President of Great Commission Air, ( http://www.GreatCommissionAir.org ) a Christian Missionary Aviation organization that provides air transport for humanitarian relief and to support Christian missions in a very remote part of Guatemala. Most of the flights we provide are for medical emergencies in small Mayan villages and to transport medical and educational volunteers working with missions in the area. During a medevac flight last July, the Cessna 336 I was piloting suffered a …view more mechanical failure and crashed in the mountains of Guatemala. My family and I will be here in the US for some time as the organization works to get another plane. In the mean time.... I am also a Certified Flight Instructor. My desire to teach flying prompted me to begin work on a Flight Simulator Scenario Based Training system to help train other missionary pilots deal with the extremely challenging flight environments that a missionary pilot has to deal with. I now have a lot of personal experience in this particular field. Before creating Great Commission Air, I gained over twenty years of experience in the computer industry designing and developing applications system and relational database systems. Most recently, I formed a small consulting company to provide Oracle Database design and administration services to clients in Michigan. http://www.OracleConsultingLLC.com When we are not in Guatemala (like now) I live with my wife and two children in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
