Piloting a Diamond DA-40 from Schaumburg Airport
While I am certainly a Cessna fan, the Diamond DA-40 has become my favorite single-engine aircraft to fly regularly. The modern cockpit, joystick and overall performance is great. For more info about the DA-40, click here.

Delightful Flight Along Chicago's Lakefront
Another awesome summer day to fly, this time along Chicago's lakefront. From Schaumburg Airport I flew to Waukegan and then headed south over the water with the city to my right. You can see some pics below of Navy Pier, the downtown/Loop area. Then I flew over the South Loop and further south and then west.

July 4th in a Cessna 172 over Northern Illinois
I had the pleasure of flying today, July 4th, and brought a flag along for the ride. The weather was nice and not too much traffic coming in and out of Chicago Executive Airport. Cheers and Happy Fourth!
A great day to fly this C-172.

Aerobatics Training on a World War II T-6 "Texan"
An amazing aerobatic flight training experience in a World War II era T-6 aircraft from Gauntlet Aerospace. I had an hour of pre-flight instruction and a one-hour flight, which included rolls and various other aerobatic maneuvers.
