"I have a very unique survival events in the archives of aviation history. My book "PAN,PAN,PAN,A Suvivors Story", has been featured at the prestigious Miami International Book Fair in Miami, Florida and in Canada. I have been a guest speaker and keynote presenter at Oshkosh and Sun-n-Fun. I am working on my third book which will be a research project on the ditching qualities of various GA airplanes. I would like to know if the Crossfield Foundation will be willing to fund such a project, which I will after the research Iam planning to do a book for pilots to be able to make a safe ditching in the water."
