When writing about aviation, the hardest part isn't explaining... the aerodynamics or the systems, it’s capturing the psychological transition from the ground to the sky. In my books, I always try to take readers past the security doors and straight into the mindset of the crew room before a high-stakes departure. The briefings, the shared trust, and the quiet focus before the engines start. What part of airline operations has always been the biggest mystery to you?show more

I see the golf swing as a three-piece movement:... the backswing, the transition, and the downswing. The transition is where most golfers lose the swing. They rush from the top, jerk the club down with their arms, and throw away all the power they created on the backswing. That’s why I love the Pause Drill. By pausing at the top, you’re forced to start the downswing from the ground up, just as the great ball strikers did. It teaches the proper kinematic sequence while helping you develop a smooth, unhurried transition. I constantly remind my students that a great golf swing isn’t about moving faster—it’s about moving in the right order. Master the transition, and the downswing will take care of itself.show more
