Ralph's Story
Life
After graduating in 1969 I continued to work at the Fort Belvoir Gas Station until Jan 1970. I then joined the Air Force and was trained as an aircraft mechanic. I worked on aircraft for 14 years, 10 of those years I was stationed at Andrews AFB, Md. and was a crew chief on one of the VC-9Cs(DC-9) which the Vice President, First Lady and other white house officials flew on. I then spent 6 years at March AFB, CA with the KC-10 program where I maintained aircraft maintenance histories. I spent my last two years at Grand Forks AFB, ND where I was assistant NCOIC of the B1-B tool crib. After I retired in 1992 at the rank of Master Sargent, I moved back to the Northern VA area and rekindled an old romance, found a job with the DC Transit Authority

In 2001 I decided to take on a part time job as a substitute school bus driver for Fauquier County. After subing for two years I decided to take a regular route driving Special Ed students. I never thought I would really like driving a school bus but I do most days. Driving the school bus still allows me to pursue my AMSOIL business. I have a couple of hobbies one is motorcycling I have accrued over 300,000 on BMW motorcycles and pushing towards 100,00 miles on a 1992 Goldwing 1500 SE. My other hobby is flying remote control airplanes which I started about 20 years ago. Over the years I moved up from just boring holes in the sky to flying scale aireobatics with a 25% and 35% scale models of an Extra 300 with 50cc and 100cc gas engines.
