Today (November 21st) we flew to Hilton Head Island SC to pick up Captain Johns Sister Barbara and brought her back to Virginia for Thanksgiving ! (You Can Click Here to View Story and Photos) We will be flying Barbara back home to Hilton Head on Sunday. Thanks for viewing….. Captain John and I would like to wish each and everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving !
I know that area well, having been stationed at MCAS Beaufort for two years as an intelligence officer.
Nice area to live in, except for the summer heat and humidity.

Nevin – Edinburg, Virginia – I am a family Man that believes very strongly that in life, it is the simple pleasures that mean the most. I love my Family and believe that compassion for others begins at home. My career has been repairing Electronics (TV's Mostly) I have worked for myself most of the time (Edinburg Electronics) and still do on a semi retired basis. I love spending time with my Family and measure my wealth by things other than dollars and cents. I have been very Honored to... for the past 6 years..... to share in my love of Flying with my Great Friend, John Billings (A Decorated WWII B24 Bomber Pilot that has never stopped Flying !) Being able to share in his many Missions of Angel Flights has only made my belief in the simple things in Life that much stronger ! To me ..... Looking at Life...... Its not what happens to us on our journey that matters so much..... it is how we deal with it. That's me kinda in a nutshell !
On your flight South, did you notice any cars on I-95 passing you? Barbara and John have the same smile. Clark Luther and his wife retired to Hilton Head Island. Clark retired as Senior Vice President – Flying at United. He was a high school friend at Arlington, Virginia, both flew with the 8th Air Force in WW II and worked together at United. Please ask Barbara if she knew them. Clark has passed. Happy Thanksgiving to all.
