Upon discharge from the navy, he attended the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, on the GI Bill, where he obtained his bachelor degree in business administration with a minor in aviation. He embraced his love of flying and became a private pilot with a partner for seventeen of the twenty-three years that he flew. He and his wife flew the twelve Western states, Canada, Mexico and into the Southern states of Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida. The Mooney he flew was his own version of the anti-gravity machine while airborne.
