Daniel Hayden is our featured speaker this year. Daniel was raised in the Brooks Range of Alaska 100 miles north of the Arctic Circle. Along with his family the only contact with the outside world was through the many bush pilots who flew to their cabin several times a year bringing basic essentials and school supplies. As a young boy watching these magic machines flying around he began to dream that one day he would take to the skies and become a bush pilot. Today Daniel flies for Wright Air service where much of his flying is in the Helio Courier taking passengers and supplies to some of the most remote places in Alaska. He spends a lot of time photographing his adventures and seeks to pass inspiration on to others in aviation just as he was inspired by many pilots in his youth.
