The recipient of the 2002 Art Scholl Showmanship Award
and the 2003 Bill Barber Award for Showmanship, Jim is
one of only eleven performers ever to receive both of
these highly prestigious honors. His entertaining flying
style coupled with his dynamic personality and tireless
energy has made Jim one of the most recognized performers
in the history of the business. Jim is one of only a handful
of full time “stunt pilots” in the world and
actually makes his living by performing for air show audiences,
world-wide.
Jim, a former Marine
Corps Scout/Sniper, holds a B.S. degree in Aeronautical/Aerospace
engineering as well as an Airframe and Powerplant (A&P)
license. His list of pilot ratings includes single-engine,
multi-engine, airplane instructor, helicopter, helicopter
instructor, instrument instructor, and aerobatic competency
evaluator. Because of his dedication and commitment to
excellence, Jim has established himself as one of the
busiest and most sought after air show performers in the
industry today.
