"I may have met you at Oskosh if you are the person that was developing the POD for use with an RV-10. If so that to me makes a lot of sense, based on the fact that most GA flights are one or two people."

"I can't take credit for the Cardinal design, Cessna did all that in the late '60s. I can only take credit for the digital modeling on X-plane. There is a module that comes with X-plane for aircraft modeling. This integrates the physical…"

"Well that was 1903 and we have come a long way. The average aircraft designer can now design a plane on the computer and actually test fly before even starting the building process. A program called X-plane is designed just for this purpose and I…"
