Joe's Story
Life
Based in Phoenix Arizona, and own a company that works with several aviation related firms doing worldwide flight operations.
After leaving Springfield I lived in Arizona, El Paso and San Diego in the 80's then moved to Berlin Germany and worked with the US Air Force, German Govt. and a private company from 1987 until 1993, then relocated to West Germany until 1995, all flying worldwide missions. Was based in Riyadh Saudi Arabia from 1995 to 1997, again with the Air Force and McDonnell Douglas Aircraft, then returned to America going to Las Vegas, Helena Montana and Dallas in the mid-90's.
Headed back to Europe again, living in Copenhagen Denmark in 1999 then returning to the states whe...Expand for more
n the contract was completed. Moved to Arizona in 2001 and lived there since.
Its nice to travel the world for a while then return home and have a month or two off to enjoy life. The past six weeks on duty has been Berlin, Paris, London, Lagos, Cairo, Doha, Bahrain, Riydah, Jeddah and a few other places.
Rotation before was Bangkok, Brunei, Hong Kong, Maledive Islands and Singapore, so we get around a bit but getting paid to spend 4-5 days in places like this can be very nice.
Does not seem like its been 35 years since Parkview but then life goes fast as you have fun. Another few years like this and may partially retire, working 3-4 months out of the year and the rest enjoying life somewhere.
