Half Fast Flying Adventures
Here's an introduction to the pilots who maintain the Half Fast Flying Adventures hangar (both virtual and real).  

Brian Aukes

Logging his first PIC hours by the age of five, Brian has been flying aircraft of all shapes and sizes for nearly his entire life.  According to Rachel, he is the best pilot around, and when he's not flying, he can usually be found in the hangar working on the planes (all of his shirts have the pilot's telltale sign - oil stains).  
In early 2009, Brian's became a Certified Flight Instructor (CFI), which means that finally he and Rachel won't have to argue about who gets to fly AND log the time. 


Rachel Aukes

Rachel's the newest aviator of the bunch.  After being introduced to flying in a Stearman on a date with Brian, she was hooked (on both Brian and flying). In 2007, she earned her wings and now takes the to the skies whenever she can.
