Wayne's Story

I went to Ohio State for a year and decided to join the Air Force. Joined in 1976 as a Vet Tech. Got my pilots license in 1980 and decided to become an Air Traffic Controller. Continued to fly and received my commercial, multi-engine, instrument flight instructor. Did Air Traffic Controller for the next 17 years and then retired. Once retired I was picked up in the same job I was at before retiring, at Air Force HQ doing Policy and Standards for Instrument Procedure design. I managed a $35 million dollar software development program that I started and now all of Department of Defense (DoD) is using. We moved our AF operations in 2006 from Washington DC to OKC. Loving it here in OKC. 2013- Retired from the Department of the Air Force with 17 years of service. Got an offer from a MITRE corporation, a company inside the beltway in Washington DC. I work for MITREs Center for Advanced Aviation System Development. Could not resist their offer and said I would never go back inside the beltway, but money talks, so.... Marilyn and I got married in March of '79. We had Angie, our only child, in 1983. She went everywhere with us. She lived in ...Expand for more
Texas, Germany, Ohio, Maryland, and Oklahoma. She graduated from Western Kentucky University with degrees in Photo Journalism, News Media, Spanish, and a minor in Women's Studies. I talked her into applying for her Masters at Oklahoma University. She was accepted and finishes her Masters in May 2008. Angie is now living in New York City.....with expectations to move to Bulgaria in Jan 09. Angie returned from Bulgaria in 2015 with her husband Nasko and her daughter Marina. They now live in Baltimore on the waterfront. Retired for the second time from my DOD job in OKC, 2013 and took a job with MITRE Corporation in Washington DC area, in their Center for Advanced Aviation System Development. My title is Lead Aviation Systems Engineer. Plan on working here until I fully retire. Could not resist their offer and said I would never go back inside the beltway, but money talks, so.... Moved into our new house in Rixeyville Virginia, about an hour from Downtown D.C. Working from home full time so there is no commute....otherwise wouldn't have built that far out. Found a beautiful 7 acres with two creeks that flow full time. Life is great.
