John's Story
Life
I got married after college in 1988 and have 4 kids. I spent 8 years in the Army as a medevac pilot and instructor pilot in the UH-60 Blackhawk. Now I'm flying an Agusta 109 helicopter on the Northern Oregon coast and life is great! I attended Shasta HS in '78/79, but then moved to Arizona where I graduated in '81 from Moon Valley HS. I hope to find old friends from both schools. The SHS 20 year reunion was great. I enjoyed it more than I expected.
School
I loved Shasta, but when we moved to Arizona, I really enjoyed my high school there also. I miss Redding. I live in Northern Oregon now, but go to Redding once a year or so to visit relatives. I think if I had finished high school at Shasta, I would've been in some trouble with the group I was hanging...Expand for more
out with. I would sure like to find some of those guys now and see what they're up to. I went to Arizona State from 1983 to 1987 and got a degree in Aeronautical Technology.
Workplace
I started working for America West Airlines while attending Arizona State Univ. and kept working there in Operations till I left AZ in 1988. In OR I sold cars for 2 years, then built boats for Bayliner for another 2. I finally joined the Army in 1992 so that I could get back into aviation. I flew Blackhawks for 8 years in the Army. I got out of the Army in 2000 to fly for the Columbia River Bar Pilots in Astoria, where I still work today. You can see pictures and videos of the flying I do now at the Columbia River Bar Pilots web site. Just make it one word and add the dot com.
