| About myself:
 I am a 55 year old Australian, born in Sydney 
		  NSW. My grandfather was an ANZAC who was in the very first wave to land 
		  on the beach in Gallipoli and 
		  later fought in the trenches in France, during World War I. Both my parents served in the Royal 
		  Australian Air Force during World War II, my father was a bomber pilot 
		  flying missions against the Japanese and my mother was a parachute 
		  folder/packer in the WAAAF. I have lived and worked in a 
		  number of countries and have lived for almost 30 years outside of 
		  Australia, before returning in 2002. I am fluent in several languages. 
		  I only mention my Australian heritage because when you listen to the 
		  audio files you will notice that I have an accent. At some point during 
		  my thirty years abroad, I lost my Aussie accent. I have been a commercial pilot since 1980 and have 
		  worked continuously in 
		  this profession ever since, last working for the national airline of 
		  Switzerland, Swissair. I was promoted to Captain in 1991. I have been happily married for 38 years and 
		  I am a proud father to four 
		  beautiful children, two boys and two girls aged 36, 31, 28 and 25.  Due to the financial consequences of the MVA and 
		  the outcome of our 
		  legal case, we had to live for a while in a stable on our Gooseberry Hill property. 
		  Unfortunately, the bank eventually foreclosed the property and we 
		  needed to find alternative rental accommodation by the end of March 
		  2012.
