Personally I don't care where someone comes from, what they do, or who they are. I had a look around someones hangar in the USA.
But just out of interest, what does he do? I'm always curious
as to how people make enough dosh for multiple fancy aircraft buys.

When I flew a 3 million quid EC135 for Today's Pilot, I asked what the owner did. Owned a bank, apparently. OK then, that explains it. And the chap who owned the EC155 that I'm still angling to fly sold an internet business for some massive figure that I wouldn't even know how to write, or how many noughts it had on the end.

I guess I'll just have to make do with flying and writing about these sorts of aircraft. I'm not complaining though.
