About Anthon Blackwood
A passionate glider enthusiast, once dreamed of becoming an elite Air Force pilot until he spectacularly failed the psychological evaluation by screaming "Mayday! Mayday!" when the examiner simply sneezed. Undeterred by military rejection, Anthon discovered gliders, where his tendency to make airplane noises with his mouth during flight is considered charming rather than concerning. His fellow gliding club members affectionately nicknamed him "Captain Powerless" after he landed in a cow pasture and attempted to bribe the farmer for silence with his emergency chocolate rations. Despite owning seventeen aviation watches and referring to his car as "ground transport," Anthon has logged more hours watching "Top Gun" than actual flight time. His dating profile proudly states he can "show you the world from above," though he neglects to mention it's in an engineless aircraft that sometimes lands in stranger's backyards.
