He completed his ROTC training and went on to enlist in the Air Force as a pilot and pilot instructor. He continued his flying career with Ozark Airlines, TWA and finally American Airlines. Captain Boring retired from American Airlines on December 12, 2017. He then got a job with the FAA and worked there until his passing. He resided in Iowa for over twenty years. His hobbies included cycling, hunting, fishing and playing Texas Holdem. He became a friend to everyone he met over the years.

Surviving Mike are his wife, Laura; his daughter, Jenna (Michael) Hawkins; his step-daughter, Amy (Josh) Teifenthaler; grandchildren, Owen Boring, Vivian Hawkins, Ella, Brooklyn and Nora Teifenthaler and Hayley Sever. He is also survived by his sister, Pat (Hugh) Martin and nephews, Michael (Monica) Martin and Matthew (Amber) Martin. In addition to his parents, Mike was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, August and Maria Ellwart, and his paternal grandparents, Edith Erdman and Ira Boring.
