This is a portal to pages that encompass a variety of activities my activities and interests. I am currently working in book publicity with Irwin
Zucker at Promotion in Motion in Hollywood While we primarily promoting authors, their books and services, we also handle a travel related
company, a political organization and an economic analyst.
My first book, A World Flight Over Russia, is the story of 12 small planes flying 17,500 miles around the world while crossing the entire
landmass of Russia in July 1992, just after the final collapse of the Soviet Union in December 1991. This event was to the first of annual flights
around the world across Russia, with a different group flying a different route across Russia each time, but turned into a one-time only affair.
Realizing the uniqueness of the event, and the fact we traversed the same routes as the World Flights of the Graf Zeppelin (1929), Wiley
Post (1931 with Harold Gatty and 1933 alone) and Howard Hughes (1938 in the Flying Laboratory).
We went to Russia just after 70 years of Marxist-Leninist tyranny had dissolved in a way that no could have predicted. The mood was hopeful
as we met dignitaries, cosmonauts, pilots and regular citizens in Moscow and all across Siberia. As guest of then Vice President Alexander
Rutskoi, our group of international adventurers was given a tour of Star City and the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training facility, the Yuri Gagarin
cafeteria and the Yuri Gagarin Museum.
It had been only seven months since the end of the Cold War when these group of intrepid aviators and their crews departed Santa Monica
Airport on July 4, 1992 for a flight through history. Click on the link below to see three articles about various parts of the trip and a photo gallery
with 50 beautiful ;pictures of Greenland, Moscow, Star City and Siberia. www.aviation-history.com/russia/worldflight.html
Beyond the World Flight, a number of other pages highlight some of my other endeavors, such as my trips to Arlington National Cemetery, the
50th Anniversaries of Pearl Harbor in Hawaii and D-Day in Normandy, France, family military archives and a page of Medal of Honor recipients
from my Great Uncle Tony's Division in World War II, the 32nd Red Arrow Division which fought in New Guinea and the Phillippines.
These trips were taken to honor the nine combat Veterans that are part of his family; two from the Civil War, two from World War I and five from
World War II.
Additionally, another page highlights some of my favorite books, some purchased and autographed at the 50th Anniversary of Pearl Harbor.
These books offer a wide range of subject matter that are relevant to the current struggles that Western Civilization is currently dealing with.
