In the fall of 1975 Grandpa (Don) climbed into a T33 Trainer Jet for what he thought would be a short 5 minute ride. His “ride” turned out to be a scare, a thrill, and much more than just a ride. Don was eighteen years old. He had never been in a small plane before. Now he was climbing into the cockpit of a military training jet. They were off!
Just a few minutes later he had the stick in his hand and the right pedal under his foot and was making a turn up in the sky over Pikes Peak Colorado at a few hundred miles per hour.
Wow! The whole event gave Don a new perspective on his life and, and, a high respect for the pilots of our world. As the “pilot” for his own family, Grandpa knows everything he does or doesn’t do makes a difference for his future, that of his wife, their eight children and their 23 grandchildren. It even makes a difference to people he doesn’t even know.
