He flew bombers and transport planes across the Atlantic, Africa, and Asia. During the Korean War, Bill was Director of Flight Operations and Chief Test Pilot for a car manufacturer in Michigan that build C-119 cargo planes to support the war effort. After the war, Bill spent several decades as a flight instructor and charter captain. In 2002, Bill and a friend successfully flew a Piper Twin Comanche around the world.
