600-1,000 hours per year, partly because we fly some really long flights, partly because we instruct a lot and partly because we just love to fly.” He continues, “If we don’t have a King Air or training flight scheduled, we usually find one of the tailwheel airplanes and go for a fun local flight. We think flying more makes us better, so we fly a lot!”
Wallace adds, “Casey Aviation, under Joe’s leadership, is the first place I’ve been that I’ve not wanted to leave or even consider other employment options. I get all the hands-on flying I want with the King Airs, I get to instruct and help make safer pilots in high- performance, turbine, pressurized aircraft in the PA-46 world, and I
get to pull out Joe’s 1940 Porterfield or an available Super Cub any time I get the itch to fly low, slow and with a wheel in the proper spot on the tail. If that isn’t enough, I got to fly around the world five times last year ferrying aircraft.”
She continues, “I am simply enjoying aviation at all the levels Casey Aviation provides. I found a kindred, aviation-loving spirit in Joe Casey and I plan on supporting his mission of ‘helping others get where they want to go’ for years to come. For the first time, I have found a career ‘home,’ flying whatever may be housed in the hangar, and fortunately that includes a couple of beautiful King Airs.” KA
