Media Coverage/Interview of My Wheelchair Accessible Airplane Project

I was contacted and did a phone interview with Alex Hummel from the "Oshkosh Northwestern" newspaper this week (June 7, 2005).  Every year they publish a magazine for EAA Airventure and they're doing an article on some of the more " down to earth" hurdles and obstacles that are being overcome in the area of aviation to contrast Burt Rutan's recent private flight to low Earth orbit.  Apparently, Alex found references on the Internet to my project, so far dubbed the "Sky Chair-iot", to design and build an airplane which can be flown independently from a wheelchair. 

 

For those interested, their EAA magazine will be published in mid-July and can be found at www.theNorthwestern.com
