At the age of 13, Don was introduced to flying by his Uncle who was an pilot for Eastern Airlines, and was instantly infatuated with aviation. Shortly thereafter, Done started an aircraft washing company �Don�s Aircraft Wash� and by the age of 16 he had saved up enough funds to buy a Cessna 150, in which he made his first solo flight on his 16 birthday. This was followed by his acquiring his Private Pilot License on his 17th birthday, followed by his Commercial Pilot License on his 18th birthday, and finally becoming jet rated at the age of 20.

While still attending college, he and a friend started a 135 freight company "Eagle Air Charter" with a Cherokee Six out of Arrowhead Airport (02K) near St. Louis with 2,700 foot strip. Flying strictly at night (after school) with the revenues of the Cherokee Six, they bought an Aztec, then two Beech 18�s to supply the automotive industry with air freighted parts in the Midwest and Southern Canada to keep the production lines open.
