I am a 747-400 pilot.
These photographs are my world through my eyes.
For pilots sometimes see behind the curtain, behind the veil of gossamer velvet,
and find the truth behind man, the force behind a universe.
— Richard Bach, "Biplane" 1966
On the 6th of October 2011 I took early retirement, and 36 years of flying came to an end.
In my career I achieved everything I ever dared dream of, and more. I have been lucky.
This website is now an archive, and host to the extraordainary view that the job of flying gifts to you.
