He started drawing and worked for Tintin Magazine before being asked to work for BAF Flight Safety magazine. Flew as passenger in many fighters and emigrated to USA in 1976. His specialty became very detailed drawings of cockpits and he is a member of American Society of Aviation Artists. Recently retired from airline business he is now back at his drawing board.
