MAXFIELD

Jill made the mistake of letting Tedd take a ballooning lesson for a birthday present. She didn't figure it would lead to owning a hot air balloon or getting up early on weekends when the weather conducive to flying. Fortunately, Jill's a very supportive wife and a good sport!

When Tedd lived in Southwest Missouri, he was lucky to meet Charlie and Norma Venable, of Neosho, Missouri, who helped Tedd learn to fly (Charlie was the instructor, but Norma was crew chief for nearly all of Tedd's dual flights). A couple years after earning his private certificate, Tedd's job took the Maxfields to Little Rock, Arkansas.

Tedd is employed by YMCA of Metropolitan Little Rock and is currently working toward his commercial pilot certificate. He often shares stories of their adventures on his blog which can be found HERE.
