My father has been designing and building bespoke aircraft for 45 years, was an FAA test pilot, inspector, and trainer for most of that time, and was in the US Air Force during the Korean War. He has more aviation experience than most.

His license plate reads GO RAIL and he won’t fly commercial if he can avoid it.
