Piloting Life

FORMER MARINE PILOT, TEXAS BUSINESS LEADER, AND DEVOTED FAMILY MAN CAREY HOBBS SHARES NINE DECADES OF WISDOM, FAITH, AND EXTRAORDINARY STORIES.
"Knowing Carey and his family has enriched my life. Reading his story will enrich your life as well. This book tells Carey's journey, from a hard-scrabble upbringing to becoming a highly successful business and civic leader, and one of the most respected citizens in our state."
- U.S. Senator Phil Gramm, Foreword
In Piloting Life, Carey Hobbs takes readers from the oil fields of New Mexico, where he and his twin brother spent their earliest years, to Texas Tech, where athleticism often outshone academics, and into the cockpit as a Marine pilot between the Korean and Vietnam Wars, defending our country in Japan. Along the way, he met the love of his life, raised five children, and spent six decades building Hobbs Bonded Fibers, a world-class nonwoven fiber business.
It was in the military that Carey discovered a love for the skies that would shape the rest of his life. His personal planes became more than business tools-they served friends, delivered humanitarian aid, and supported political leaders.
Guided by a 10th-grade vow to "be more than people see," Carey quietly influenced leaders in his community, state, and nation, while leading a business with hundreds of employees who became like family, and contributing to higher education and civic life.
Over nine decades, he has navigated trials and triumphs, heartbreak and hope, with purpose and perseverance. Take a window seat and join Carey Hobbs on this flight of life, told with insight, humility, and humor. Learn to navigate smooth air and turbulence alike and make your final approach with intention and legacy in mind.
Readers will experience:
* LIFE IN THE COCKPIT - from desert training flights to personal missions supporting friends, politics, and humanitarian causes;
* FAMILY AND LOVE - a lifelong partnership with Brenda and devotion to five children;
* LEADERSHIP AND SERVICE - insights from decades influencing business, higher education, politics, and community life; and
* LEGACY AND HOPE - a life embraced fully at every age, grounded in quiet faith, showing that there is always hope and never to give up.
Carey Hobbs is not one to tell others how to live their lives, yet with humility and humor, shares how he has chosen to live his life. Take flight with this gifted storyteller and journey through the story of his life.
