Welcome to my user page! I'm an adminstrator but am currently on hiatus at the moment. I lead a very eclectic real life: I'm a former aircraft and helicopter mechanic, a published writer and currently working as a photographer for a major defense contractor.
For the tireless work on AFCs, deletions, and other administrative tasks that often go unnoticed (you know what happens when they do get noticed!) Keep upholding the policies that keep WP from being a total madhouse! Especially the editors with gusto. :) BillCJ (talk) 08:59, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
Wikiwings First award: For your extensive efforts to find quality pictures for aviation and specifically rotorcraft articles, as well as your extensive edits to improve all aviation articles. --Born2flie 04:26, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Second award: For unending vigilance and almost inexhaustible patience in dealing with sockpuppets, trolls, vandals, and all the rest of the fun and excitement that goes with being an Admin on Wikipedia. I salute you, sir! --Born2flie (talk) 19:17, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

WikiMedal for Janitorial Services
I'm awarding you the medal for janitorial services for keeping Wikipedia clean of such garbage as the Greg Reid spam article. After reviewing some of you work I can safely say that this award is long overdue. -Duribald (talk) 23:44, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
The Mighty Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
In recognition & thanks for your efforts in helping us work our way towards consensus in making Battle of Washita River a good WP:NPOV (instead of WP:SOAP) article. We've still got a lot of work to do, but now we can do it, in no small part because of your help. Not too mention you're just a pretty damn fine admin. Yksin 20:14, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
