Hi, and welcome to my website.
My name is John, and I was born in Bermuda in 1956.
In 1958, we moved to a little island in the
Southern Caribbean
called
Curaçao,
then next-door to the island of
Aruba
in 1960, and back to
Curaçao
in 1961 until 1968.
During my time as an aircraft mechanic, although the Twin Otter was my main responsibility as an aircraft mechanic, the following are also aircraft that we had and that I was an aircraft mechanic on:
I joined the Canadian Armed Forces
(also referred to as the Canadian Forces, but what is now the Royal Canadian Air Force) in 1975 at the age of 18 (51 years ago), and the following are places where I was stationed:
I was in Bermuda for more than 31 years, working in IT for various companies, including 13 years with IBM Bermuda (a division of IBM Canada) servicing (repairing) ATM cash machines.
Although in the 1990s I had a part-time job flying a local Bell JetRanger helicopter, taking people on helicopter tours around Bermuda. But the helicopter was sold in 1998 due to no business , and I spent the remaining decades in Bermuda flying a desk.
That's me in the 2 pictures near the top-right on this page: in the left picture, that's me, Captain John, flying for Bermuda Helicopters Ltd. (I'm in my civilian flight-suit, NOT my military flight-suit); and in the other picture, that's me more-recently.
And that's about it for me...
