We had a bit of an audio issue and do apologize but if you have a fascination for aviation history, and are looking to add some zest to a Route 66 adventure, this program is for you!

Paul Gaines and Tim Gerlich are writing a new chapter in the long and colorful aviation history in Kingman, Arizona. The Aviation Heritage Center that they are creating will be an educational center that inspires and that connects future generations to the aviation, engineering, and innovation history of Kingman. Did you know that Charles Lindbergh and Amelia Earhart have a Kingman connection? Did you know that the Kingman Airport along Route 66 is chock full of tangible links to the WWII Kingman Army Airfield and is home to a delightful breakast or lunch stop cafe? 

Jim Hinckley’s America is a shared adventure. So, invite your firends and lets share a high flying adventure with Tim and Paul. And next week on Coffee With Jim we visit with Will Grant who has mastered the art of living a life of adventure that blurs the line between past and present. His book The Last Ride of the Pony Express: My 2,000 Mile Horseback Journey Into The Old West is a masterfully written account of one of these epic adventures. First was a childhood passion for the romanticism of the Wild West. After college he worked as a cowboy and horse trainer. Then came a career in journalism, a horse race across Mongolia, and a prospecting adventure in Arizona. Curious?
