Eddie's Bio

I was born and raised in San Diego, California, and joined the Army immediately after high school, where I served as an airframe structural repairman, working on helicopters during Desert Storm. Although flying had always been a passion of mine, it wasn’t until later in life that I was able to turn that dream into reality. In 2014, I earned my private pilot license, which inspired me to pursue a new career. Determined to make this transition, I spent the next year obtaining my Certified Flight Instructor Instrument (CFII) certification.

Since then, I have accumulated over 5,000 hours of flight time across a wide range of aircraft, from the humble Aeronca Champ to the more sophisticated Malibu-class Pipers, King Airs, Pilatus, and Cessna Citation Mustang. I even have the unique experience of logging 0.5 hours in a blimp!

Throughout my flying career, I have been fortunate to receive guidance from many exceptional mentors. Now, I am committed to paying it forward by sharing my knowledge and experience with others
