HighJackers is still at XFL and a great restaurant. If you ever land there take a walk behind the restaurant by the t-hangers and see our helicopter. We love to show it off. A red white and blue Astar.

I work at FXL. We fly over Lake Diston about every day.

Oddly enough my job as a paramedic for many years has brought me in contact with several famous people. Abe Vigoda, I was friendly with his daughter and met him several times. George Cumming of Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show I've met once. Mark Martin, As a part time draftsman, I did...

I'll be working Thanksgiving. Not my shift this year but I usually work for someone that has kids.

I spoke with Mr Cole today. First conversation I had with him since the crash. It was exhilarating to say the least. Hopefully I will meet him in a couple months. I also spoke with the author of the article and he is doing another story about us getting in contact. It has been a good day...

I just received an email from the author of the article who put me in touch Mr. Cole. Hopefully I will talk with him tomorrow.

My hands are shaking as I write this. While I cannot get into any details because of patient confidentiality, I worked this crash. Now that I read the article, I am trying to get in touch with Mr. Cole. If anyone knows him please send me a PM. I already emailed the author of the article.
