Lloyd Geist Sr was the seaplane guy in this area for a long time. I read he had a really impressive military career too. The person who taught me to fly (Charlie Hammond) started out working for Lloyd in the 50's. Did you live in Houma?

Good question. I remember individual phases and how the first time it seemed so hard, but by the second hour it was already a little easier. Landings, hood work, steep turns...when trying them for the first time it seemed like I could never do it but somehow I learned it and moved on. I...

2 days before hurricane Gustav hit I was sitting in my driveway talking with my father-n-law and we noticed a family of 4 walking down the sidewalk, all with carry on bags. We had decided not to evacuate and had been watching everybody pack and leave throughout the day. As we are sitting there...
