I began modeling in 2014 to help fill in my spare time after retiring in 2013. I've had an interest in aircraft since I was 7 yrs old and joined the ATC (Air Training Corps) when I lived in the UK, with all intentions to become a fighter Pilot....meeting my first love/wife was a bad distraction to achieving that goal, and therefore, I became a Mechanical/Plastics Engineer instead.

I started a YouTube modeling channel in 2014 and to date (4.24.17) I have posted 176 modeling related videos.
