Personal type stuff

I like to fly and hold a Private Pilots license and fly from Midway (MDW) Airport Chicago. I'm also into Amateur Radio N9YIR. When life was simpler and I had more spare time, I was a member of the Civil Air Patrol and also a former member of Melrose Park RACES-Skywarn, which is part of the emergency services division. Skywarn is part of the severe weather spotters program of the National Weather Service, where during a severe weather alert, trained spotters report via amateur radio nets to the Skywarn center (located within Melrose Park RACES) which in turn relay's the information to the National Weather Service.

I have compiled several runway diagrams of select Chicagoland airports, so you may become familiar with the various airports in and around Chicago.

I also have two son's Kenny and Andy (no web page yet for Andy).
