A natural airshow performer  -  Erik is personable to the public, engaging to the media and a rare, polished, stick and rudder pilot. 

Erik can't remember his first airplane ride because he wasn't even born yet!

He Began "training" at the the age of 6. He sat on his father’s lap and flew on instruments. Erik was ready for solo at the age of 8 thru the use of a tailor-made seat and control extensions. At age 10, he learned spins, which sparked his lifelong passion for aerobatics. 
Erik has worked as a Flight Instructor, an Instructor/Pilot for an air combat school in the AT-6/SNJ and as a Corporate Pilot in Lear Jets, Kings Airs, etc. He has flown over 150 different makes and models of aircraft. A farmer by trade, Erik takes to the air as naturally as he plants his fields. A modest but gifted pilot, Erik is thrilled to be living his dream flying a one of a kind comedy/aerobatic act in the “T-Clips.”

The “T-Clips” was originally built by Taylorcraft in 1939. It was “Clipped” for aerobatics in 1997 by Steve Givens using a mix of both the Swick and Legendary Duane Cole plans. It may be the only Clip T performing in airshows today with the “old school” Continental C-85.

Erik has further modified the T-Clips  with additional features such as inverted oil, and airshow smoke systems making it an optimal and unique “up close and personal”, crowd-pleasing airshow machine. 

He enhanced the capabilities of his inverted fuel with a Rotec Throttle Body Injector which allows the engine to run flawlessly inverted. By adding the Catto propeller it made an amazing difference in his performance, it climbs harder, accelerates and cruises faster, plus, it remarkably runs cooler!
