Redwood City, CA. he holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University
of San Francisco. His interest in the history of fl ight was encouraged by
his mother who used to tell him stories about her years as a stewardess
with T.W.A.
After becoming semi-retired he struck up an acquaintance with Tom
Hillier, owner of the Hillier Air Museum at the Modesto Airport. Th e
airport is home to the Central Valley Squadron of the Commemorative
Air Force, an organization which holds monthly fund raisers to keep
historical planes fl ying.
For Greg and Michele, the gatherings at the hangars and a visit with Tom
Hillier are a unique opportunity to experience the history of fl ight fi rst

made it possible.view less
