Mr. Brock Bentz

I have been interested in aviation and airplanes for my entire life. My father was an aircraft mechanic in the Air Force, so I grew up on Air Force bases and was always around airplanes. My grandfather was a 15th Air force B-24 crewmember during World War II. I naturally followed their lead with my interest in aviation. I always wanted to be a pilot, a dream which became reality when I earned my private pilot’s license at 17 years old. I then attended the US Air Force Academy, graduating in 1999. Pilot training followed, where I earned my Air Force pilot’s wings in 2000. I now fly the C-5 Galaxy at Dover AFB, DE.
