Todd Hornbuckle was born to a Wyoming cattle-ranching family in 1975. After studying math and completing United States Air Force ROTC at New Mexico State University, he set off for the aviation adventure of a lifetime. His 5000 military hours, flown with both gold and silver wings, include supersonic flights, combat sorties above 70,000 ft, carrier takeoffs and landings, air-to-air combat training, high-speed low-level hops, and weapons delivery. His 17 years with Delta Air Lines have been spent flying Boeing 757, 767, and Airbus 330 aircraft to nearly every continent. In 2016, his greatest aeronautical challenge would come with his seven-year-old daughter beside him. Against impossible odds, he would endure the unimaginable to reclaim his rightful place in the sky. Captain Hornbuckle lives in Meridian, ID, with his wife Tamara and the youngest of their three children.
