Randy's Flightline

As many of you know, I'm very interested in flying and aviation in general. After flying with my father for years and years as a child, I finally earned my Private Pilot's license on 28 August 1995 so I could fly myself.
I currently training to fly the Boeing F-15E Strike Eagle with the "Red Dogs" of the 333rd Fighter Squadron, Seymour Johnson AFB, N.C.

To read more about my experiences as an Air Force pilot visit The Road To Wings, the online journal of my experiences in USAF pilot training.

Here's a photo of the airplane I grew up flying in:
My father's old Ryan L-17B Navion (USAAF SerNo 48-1007)
