[edit] About the User

I found my way to wikipedia around May of 2004 when I was looking for famous events that happened on my birthday. Ever since I have used this as an alternate source for info and now I am just beginning to feel comfortable enough to edit.

[edit] Aviation

I am a holder of a Canadian Commercial Pilots Licence with multi engine and Instructor endorsements. I have worked at obtaining this for the past four years, starting in January 2002. I have time in three of Cessna's "training" aircraft: C150, C152, and C172. I also have had some fun in a Beech Baron 55. I have travelled to many places in the Canadian prairies and wish to start flying the U.S.A probably starting with the International Peace Gardens. If anyone is interested in costs involved, requirements (Canada only please) or other aviation related items I would be more then happy to help you.

[edit] Volleyball

I am currently a Volleyball referee and have been for the past six years. The most high profile matches I have done to date so far was an International j.r. Volleyball match between Canada and the U.S.A. as a lines Judge. U.S.A. won 3-1 and an International Women’s match between Canada and Japan also as a lines judge with Japan winning 3-1.

[edit] Employment

Currently I am an instructor at a flying club in Manitoba. I used to work as a retail sales representative at a computer store. I have worked there for the past two years and have had a lot of fun doing it. When else can some guys ask for? Be able to play the latest games on the best hard ware available. I have also work as a Customer Service Rep at a retail grocery store, a ball picker (ha ha laugh all you want, I was the guy everyone wants to hit at a driving range), a radio spot editor for a non-profit organization and like a lot of other people my first job was delivering newspapers.

[edit] Electronics

For being a retail sales rep. at a computer store I know not much more than the average "geek". I know a bit about a bunch of things instead of everything about a few things. But Game Pads, Flight Yokes and, Racing Wheels were my domain.
