History: Graham began his aviation career in the Navy. After starting in the T-34 Mentor, he spent the rest of his time flying helicopters on USS Nimitz (CVN-68) doing anti-submarine warfare and search and rescue. Notable memories are landing aboard USS New Jersey (BB-62), a WWII-era Iowa-class battleship, and flying a brand new SH-60 Seahawk across the country at 500 feet from the Sikorsky plant in Connecticut to San Diego. He was also a helicopter flight instructor and maintenance check pilot.
After a few different careers, Graham is back to flying. He recently earned his civilian flight instructor certification with AeroDynamic Aviation. We are glad to share his wisdom and years of experience with our students.
