Hello and welcome to Airman Dan.  Here you will find some insights into my life.  If I take a particularly good photo, you’ll find it in the Photography section.  Likewise, my video shooting and editing work appears in the Videography section.  My lengthy-but-infrequent blogging about politics goes in, as you might expect, the Blog section. If you want to see what I do for freelance work, feel free to pop on over to [dp] design#, which is perpetually in progress.


At the moment my focus is on continuing my pilot training.  I am currently an Instrument Rated Private Pilot with approximately 180 hours logged, building time for my Commercial Pilot certificate.  I recently acquired a Complex Airplane endorsement as well.  I train at F.I.T. Aviation, a flight school that is part of Florida Tech’s College of Aeronautics, where I am enrolled pursuing a BS in Aviation Management.


Given the infrequency of my updates, I highly recommend you subscribe to my blog’s RSS feed.  My posts are huge and informative, but few and far between.  RSS will simplify your life.
