The father of aeronautics has been my lifelong hero. I had always felt his name was overlooked by history so choose it to pay homage and keep him in the public domain

Now that we approach the 150th anniversary of his aircrafts first flight hopefully his profile has been raised to its proper position.

He gave us a saying which I believe is the private pilots creed

The air is a navigable ocean that laps at everyones door
