About Stan Bain
Born and raised in Montana, Stan Bain discovered adventure early in life. At 17, he made his first parachute jump in 1962 and later earned his Class D skydiver license. Two years later, he soloed his first flight, beginning a lifelong passion for aviation.
After serving in Vietnam, Stan built a 33-year career with the U.S. Forest Service, teaching part-time at Flathead Community College and later serving as Program Leader of Operations at the Remote Sensing Application Center in Utah.
Writing became his therapy after Vietnam, leading to his first book, You Are Never Alone. He now lives in Florida with Loretta and his dog, Luna.
