摘要

NICK MORAN LIKES THE WIND. Growing up in Washington, he learned to fly fixed-wing aircraft at 15 and earned his certificate at 17 at Glacier Aviation in Olympia. Working at the Bremerton naval base as an ordnance mechanic, Moran longed for a more active lifestyle, so he and wife, Magen, pulled stakes and moved to New Zealand to kite surf. They were instructors in both kite surfing and paddle boarding and "had a blast" but eventually wanted to return to the States. They chose Maui, known for its trade winds and Kona winds. The "Valley Isle" sits between two volca-nos, which create a deep valley that acts like a giant wind tunnel. Trade winds can be as strong as 40 mph; Kona winds in the fall and winter months are usually 12 to 18 mph. But whatever the season, it's windy on Maui. Moran met up with a friend and started flying helicopters. Eventually the pair ran a flight school with a Schweizer S300, teaching high-wind flying and mountain flying. When the friend went to the airlines, Moran bought a Robinson R44. "I call it my one-ship wonder," he said. "It's my Swiss Army knife; it can do everything I need it to do."
