    Inspiring story. I'm 61 yrs old and want to reinvent myself.
    Thank You. 😊

    27:28 "When seconds matter, the police is always minutes away." I grew up in Texas (and still live here). As high school seniors, a friend and I were listening to the police frequency on a scanner one night. A call came in stating shots fired and a unit was dispatched. The officer responding on the radio said, "Please advise when you think the last shot is fired." Police are in no hurry to "protect & serve."

    Mike, this is a great episode. Thanks for the inspiration and for giving us aspiring pilots insight into such interesting pilots, people, and possibilities. I've never met anyone like Greg, so thanks for sharing his life with us.

    this is the best video ever you should do more of these with more pilots that are on youtube or in the community

    As a business owner. I thought this video was exceptional. Financially I have no means to where Greg is at, but his mind set of retirement is my same motivation. This was a great video and I am thankful you shared it. The lighting rod analogy was my biggest take away. How to channel all that energy into something else when I retire. Wow that was awesome. Something I’ll start planning out when I exit my business one day.

    Mike .. Hello from CYQT 🇨🇦. THANK YOU for posting this. Just what I needed. The topic is so timely, as I just sold my company 14 months ago. I can relate to so many of his statements …. “re-channeling one’s energy” into a NEW CHALLENGE. When the snow is gone in the spring I plan on picking up my PPL flight training where I left off 30 months ago. Have 54 hours and I was one flight from my check ride then “life” got really BUSY. Really enjoyed this video. I won’t be flying anything as exotic as his TBM. My plane is a Beautiful Avid Magnum. Maybe one year I’ll upgrade … I’ve always really loved the Cessna Sky Master 337. Thank you for always sharing your passion for General Aviation. Best regards from CYQT. 👍🇨🇦👍

    Great story and I'm sure many of us can relate to this story.
    I myself went back to Highschool at the age of 28 for 3-years to get into Engineering... the rest is history and I'm shopping for my first plane.

    Ah yes, He is an interesting man. By the way, police can't protect you as they are reactionary only and by that time it's too late.

    Interesting video. I can relate. Just before COVID I was winding down my business activities and when COVID happened I became restless and maybe a little depressed, so I bought an airplane. It was the tonic I needed.

    hey i did contact your flightschool via the contact form on your webpage; wanted to finish my FAA IR with you guys, but never got a reply. And it has been approx. one months. So signed up with another flight school.

      I'm so sorry that happened and I take full accountability for it. Between moving to a new state and being short staffed a lot has fallen through the cracks. But we are putting the right systems back in place. If you're ever in town or like to come by. Please reach out. And you can email me directly mike@lookupflightacademy.com thanks.

      ​@aircobraman1375 yeah my grandma had one with cable and turning disc to dial the numbers😂 We use smartphones nowadays and call on Whatsapp, Telegram and Signal; free calls worldwide if you have internet connection. But i noticed most US companies don't offer these options. Regular calls cost a small fortune.

Unfortunately US companies rarely offer this option and regular calls cost a small fortune from Europe to USA ​

    Mike, nice video, but the AI closed caption was very distracting. Skip it and just have those who are not proficient in English turn it on via UA-cam.

    You think Wyoming is on the west coast? Time for you to study US geography Mike. Also, Omaha is in Nebraska not Indiana.

      Don't go to Texas. They all think THEY are "the WEST COAST of America". They don't think anything meaningful is west of them. If you've ever driven between El Paso and Austin or San Antonio, you know there's nothing but barren desert out there ... for 9 long hours. So I can see why they think that way. But they're on the Central Time Zone, which is middle America. There are two more time zones west of them. :)
