May 06, 2016

Today's Flight Plan

Pilots come from all walks of life, and end up in all different kinds of careers. Some of the most coveted careers in aviation or those of fighter pilot and airline pilot.

Today’s guest, Steve Vihlen, was a fighter pilot and is now an airline pilot of 26 years, flying cargo for Fedex.

Through his career, he didn’t exactly have things easy and certainly didn’t follow the path he originally thought he would. However, through hard work, accepting opportunities, and never losing sight of his dream, he eventually got to be both a fighter pilot and later an airline pilot.

We talk to Steve as he sites out from out of his place on a grass airstrip, complete with 4 airplanes that he owns. So, don’t mind the occassional sound of an airplane flying by.
