Jeremy learned to fly from an intro flight lesson that was a gift for his birthday in 1992. He is still good friends with the flight instructor from that day. He has a non-aviation day job but nights and weekends are spent either flying or making repairs and improvements to his plane. He is still not sure if he prefers to build or to fly. He built and flies a Velocity canard aircraft, and while he will probably build another plane soon, his non-pilot friends are tired of hearing him talk about it.
