He has served two committee posts for his airline’s pilot union as Vice Chairman of Security, and later Chairman of Communications, and has been based in California, Arizona, Illinois, Maryland, and Nevada.
The inspiration for Stars Fell on Alabama came while flying over the state one late summer evening, as, from his flight deck windscreen, he watched a meteorite streak across the sky.
