Charlie Hillard, a native of Fort Worth, Texas, began working toward his dream of flight by dusting cars in his father's auto dealership at the age of ten. By the age of fifteen, he had saved enough money to secretly learn to fly and purchased his own airplane during his freshman year of college. When he was eighteen, he took up the sport of skydiving, earned a place on the United States skydiving team in 1958, and placed second at the "Coupe de Monde" in France. That same summer, he became the first person in the U.S. to pass a baton in freefall.
