I always said that I would work on the book someday “when I got old”. Although 13 years have passed since my epic tour of Europe, I still don’t consider myself “old” but the recent death of a friend from high school days inspired me with a sense of urgency. Barry Dunleavy was a friend for 54 years. His passing got me thinking that maybe I might not have much time left and that some of the things I’ve been putting off might not get done at all unless I “Begin it Now”. Thank you, Barry. Rest easy, good buddy. 8 The Fantasies I took delivery of my beautiful new biplane at the factory in Lansing, Michigan, in the summer of 1993, registration number N50YM. With the considerable help of Waco Chief Pilot Carl Dye, I was able to get it back to my home airport of Carlsbad, CA where I would begin the serious work of learning to fly it. I knew virtually nothing about flying but I had the time and energy and commitment to mastering the art and science of it. As a student pilot I had two different instructors who were checked out by Carl: Vince Moore and Lowell Williams. Vince was young, detailed, rational, and patient. Lowell was a P-51 fighter pilot in WWII, and a finer man/pilot could not be found. Between them, I finally learned something and eventually I earned my ticket to solo. It took me much longer than normal to solo because the insurance company could not imagine how anyone could learn to fly such an extraordinary (and expensive) airplane without having tons of experience with other, more normal, airplanes. Eventually, after petitions by my instructors, and their assurances that I was an OK pilot, I was allowed into the sky alone. A solo license, or even a Private Pilot license, is just an early step in the long path of learning. Over the next several years I achieved ratings for Instrument flying, Multi- engine aircraft, gliders, seaplanes, etc. About a year into my flying education, instructor Vince Moore was doing a solo test flight, to check things out after some routine maintenance. Due to an undocumented feature of the parking brake, and his use of the brake during a ground run-up of the engine, the brake stayed partially engaged during the subsequent flight, and when he touched down, the parking brake engaged fully and instantly, flipping the plane over and making it a total loss. Vince was unhurt, thankfully. I traded the parts and the insurance payoff for a new biplane, same as the first one and gave it a registration number in remembrance of the first one: N250YM. In the few months between Vince’s accident and the delivery of the new biplane I had some time to continue my flying education, but in different airplanes. It was during this time I flew the legendary WWII fighter, the P-51 Mustang, and the B-17 bomber, earned a seaplane license, instrument rating, multi-engine rating, and glider solo license. The next couple of years with the new biplane were some of the best times of my life. Flying consumed me completely. 9 Each new adventure fueled the next. At first I would fly just around Southern California, then the southwest (Monument Valley, etc.), and up the coastline to Big Sur, Half Moon Bay and the coastline of Oregon. Bolder adventures took me through Nevada, Utah, Wyoming and Montana. In 1995, Art Annecharico and his Waco joined me on a trip along the beach from San Diego to Canada. In 1996 Art and I flew our biplanes across the USA, from SoCal to Maine, down the east coast to Kitty Hawk, then back home again. I wrote daily emails from that 6-week trip, and the story is online at http://www.MichaelMcCafferty.com/adventures. This was event blogging, but before blogging was invented. I didn’t take any photos, and I guess I just can not think of a good excuse why. However it did teach me to be sure to take photos on future tours. After the coast-to-coast adventure, it seemed natural to do a Round The World flight. When I looked further into the idea of a Round The World flight, I was amazed to learn that an open-cockpit biplane had flown around the world only once, in 1927, with the full resources of the US military, and two pilots, not solo. And so, a worthy challenge presented itself: to become the only man to fly solo around the world in an open-cockpit biplane. Initial planning indicated it would take at least a year in the planning, and six months in the execution, and a whole lot of money.
