Eddie Sanches grew up in a flying family and started flying at the age of 16.  In college he started flight instructing at 19 years old. Then at 21, he became employed at Continental Airlines which merged with United Airlines in 2012. Eddie is currently a B-777 Captain for them.

He thoroughly enjoys flying for the airlines, but the REAL fun started in 2018 when Eddie acquired the Highlander and began flying with friends to remote riverbeds and campsites which soon lead to many competitions throughout the year.
