A licensed pilot since 1989, Will Phelps is an avid flyer always ready for the quick trip for that “$100 hamburger or breakfast” with his flying friends. Phelps grew up the son of an Army Air Corps WWII veteran, which made flying a part of his life and formed a special father/son bond. Phelps is a strong proponent of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) and Young Eagles.
Phelps is currently an executive and 40 year veteran at a fortune 100 company. While corporate life has been good, flying and writing about flying have long been his passions.
He and his wife Lisa, have three children. They have lived in Arizona, California, Washington, and New York.
