Wow, I used to live in South Lyon for about a year while I was a CFI. Sad story.

A year and a half later, I am still wondering about this allegedly unemployed captain. Has anyone figured out who he is? Back gainfully employed or should we expect to see him in some reality TV show?

You have to realize most of the happy pilots are not on this website. My advice is to try and separate the facts from the romance when reading what people have to say at any rumor-based website.
