Bill's Story
Workplace
I have worked in the aviation profession since 1970 . First as a pilot then as an Air Traffic Controller. I am presently teaching new Air Traffic Control recruits in Christchurch New Zealand. Looks like I'll go part-time instructing as of August this year to free myself up to travel.
Military
Worked on the flight deck of the USS America CVA66 on no.3 and 4 catapults. We operated off the coast of North Vietnam in 1968. I really enjoyed the people I worked with and have already made contact with an old shipmate after 40 years!!
Family
Have been married to Cathie (a Kiwi)since 1976. We have two grown children Kevin 29 and Angie 25. Kevin works for Air New Zealand as a ramp supervisor here ...Expand for more
in Christchurch. Angie has just completed her first year of a masters degree in English. She is also a qualified English teacher. She plans to teach this year (2011) and then travel to Europe and teach English in Germany.
Cathie and I love to travel and spent a few months in 2010 seeing the Canadian Rockies and the western USA. Yellowstone, The Grand Tetons, Mt. Rushmore, . We then headed east through St. Louis ,Tennessee and the Blue ridge mountains of Virginia. the highlight for me was getting tickets to the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville..
The next trip will be Europe . I'm a real history buff and would like to re-visit some places in Europe I saw about 15 years ago while on a working holiday.
