This week Ben, Brian, and Ted get into IFR currency: what it actually takes to stay instrument current and ready. Six approaches, holds, tracking and intercepting nav aids, and the clock that never stops running. Foggles versus a safety pilot versus the real thing, why the foggles are "the worst approximation of the instrument experience," and whether an IPC is the smarter move than chasing six approaches every six months. Plus a full tape machine of your voice memos and a whole lot of Oshkosh anticipation.From the tape machine: Ash (flying_wheelies) on flying as a wheelchair pilot and sport pilot in his Paradise P1, and more of your feedback.Mentioned on the show:Brian's THE LONG WAY: https://www.makesmallcorrections.com/Frequency Change Aviation, Nashville: https://frequencychangeaviation.com/EP36 with CFI & flight school owner Jeff Ramsey: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep36-cfi-flight-school-owner-jeff-ramsey-on-how-to/id1591463789?i=1000615289723Ash's Flying Wheelies: https://www.instagram.com/flying_wheeliesParadise P1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradise_P1_LSAICP Savannah: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICP_SavannahWhen Do You Need An IPC (Boldmethod): https://www.boldmethod.com/learn-to-fly/regulations/when-do-you-need-an-ipc-instrument-proficiency-check/1DullGeek's "I Can't See the Runway!!": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoIQv7IsfCw

This episode kicks off the Oshkosh Dispatch series as Bobby Doss and Wally Mulhearn preview EAA AirVenture. They reminisce about last year's event including blimp formations and the massive scale of the airshow while discussing aviation lingo like calling it Osh. Wally shares his travel plans flying the Saratoga from Houston to Madison Wisconsin with fuel stops and packed lunches after missing car rentals in Fond du Lac. Bobby mentions his daughter working with 4Flights and their upcoming announcements at the event. The hosts emphasize the importance of reading NOTAMs following ATC instructions and working within the system for safe travels. They also tease upcoming one minute Oshkosh Shorts videos with quick pilot tips available on social media throughout the week. Listeners are encouraged to follow all channels for video content even if they cannot attend in person. The episode highlights the excitement of the world's largest aviation gathering and offers practical advice for pilots heading north.

This sermon on John 12:1–11 explores Mary's extravagant act of anointing Jesus with costly perfume as a powerful model of true worship. Contrasting Mary's wholehearted devotion with Judas' hypocrisy, the message teaches that genuine worship flows from a heart transformed by gratitude for Christ's saving grace rather than from outward religious actions alone. The sermon emphasizes that understanding the depth of God's forgiveness naturally produces thankfulness, generous sacrifice, and a willingness to worship without concern for cultural expectations or personal reputation. Using examples throughout Scripture, it explains that authentic worship is marked by gratitude, heartfelt devotion, and a life fully surrendered to Christ, extending far beyond singing in church to every aspect of daily living. Believers are challenged to reject empty religiosity, embrace an intimate relationship with Jesus, and live as a “sweet aroma” of Christ wherever they go, recognizing that every action can glorify God. Ultimately, the message concludes that worship is not merely an event or a song but a lifestyle, calling Christians to offer their entire lives as living sacrifices in response to the overwhelming mercy, love, and grace they have received through Jesus Christ.

This sermon explores the often-overlooked story of Joseph of Arimathea, focusing on his transformation from a secret follower of Jesus to a courageous public disciple after Christ's crucifixion. Drawing from all four Gospels, it highlights Joseph's wealth, position on the Jewish high council, and quiet belief in Jesus despite fear of the religious leaders. The message suggests that Joseph's decision to personally request Jesus' body, bury Him in his own tomb, and openly identify with Christ was an act of repentance and faith rather than mere fulfillment of Jewish burial customs or prophecy. The sermon challenges believers to examine whether they, like Joseph, have hidden their faith out of fear or a desire for comfort, while encouraging them to boldly identify with Christ regardless of the cost. It concludes with a call for Christians to publicly live out their faith and an invitation for those who have not yet trusted in Jesus to commit their lives to Him.

This sermon centers on the crucifixion of Jesus, emphasizing the immense love of God displayed through Christ's suffering and sacrifice. It vividly describes the physical and emotional agony Jesus endured on the cross before exploring the deeper spiritual significance of His final words, particularly His declaration, “It is finished.” The sermon explains that the Greek word tetelestai conveys that the debt of sin has been fully paid, the sentence completely served, the work of redemption finished, the perfect sacrifice accepted, and the victory over sin and death won. The supernatural events surrounding Jesus' death—the darkness, the tearing of the temple curtain, the earthquake, and the resurrection of the saints—demonstrate His divine identity and the completion of God's plan of salvation. Drawing from Hebrews 10 and 1 Peter 2, the message contrasts the repeated sacrifices of the Old Testament with Christ's once-for-all sacrifice, which permanently atones for sin and provides direct access to God. Ultimately, the sermon reminds listeners that Jesus willingly endured unimaginable suffering because of His great love for humanity, assuring every person of their immense worth and value in God's eyes and inviting them to receive the forgiveness and eternal life made possible through His sacrifice.

In this podcast episode, the host interviews Evelyn (“Evie”), who runs Green Medicine of Wisconsin, a cash-based integrative clinic specializing in tick-borne disease in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Evelyn shares her childhood tick bite and classic bullseye rash leading to a clinical Lyme diagnosis, later symptoms like fatigue, headaches, and sore throats, and her path from trauma neurosurgery and primary care into Lyme-focused practice. They discuss 2026's increased tick concerns, Evelyn's high household tick encounters, and a wood tick that tested positive for Powassan virus. She describes common clinic presentations (fatigue, cardiac abnormalities, cognitive issues), challenges with testing, and the importance of foundations like sleep, nutrition, stress, and light exposure. Prevention strategies include tick checks, avoiding tall grass, permethrin-treated clothing, proper tweezers removal, and optional tick testing. Treatment may involve antibiotics, herbals, homeopathics, peptides, HDC helminthic therapy, ozone/IV therapies, and intravenous light therapy, with many patients improving over time.— Connect With EvelynIG: https://www.instagram.com/thefusionfnp/https://www.gmofwi.com/ _________Sponsored By:→ VivaRays | This episode is sponsored by VivaRays - VivaRays Blue - code YOGI https://vivarays.com/→ Bon Charge | Go to https://boncharge.com/products/demi-red-light-device?rfsn=8108115.26608d & use code SARAHKLEINER for 15% off storewide._________Timestamp:00:00 Tick Symptoms Surge01:15 Why This Episode Matters02:13 Podcast Intro And Disclaimers03:26 Meet Evelyn Tick Specialist04:41 Evies Lyme Origin Story07:21 From Trauma NP To Lyme Clinic14:41 Modern Tick Boom And What We Can Control37:34 Why Medicine Misses Lyme38:32 Terrain First Foundations39:50 Stress Hormones and Pregnancy41:19 Tick Bite Prevention Basics46:26 Tick Testing and Next Steps54:04 Treatment Options Beyond Antibiotics01:02:49 Testing Advocacy and Finding Help——— This video is not medical advice & as a supporter to you and your health journey - I encourage you to monitor your labs and work with a professional!________________________________________Get all my free guides and product recommendations to get started on your journey!https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/all-free-resourcesCheck out all my courses to understand how to improve your mitochondrial health & experience long lasting health!

This sermon on Matthew 27 focuses on the ridicule, rejection, and suffering Jesus endured on His way to the cross, emphasizing that Scripture often highlights the emotional and spiritual persecution surrounding the crucifixion more than the physical suffering itself. Jesus was mocked by religious leaders, political authorities, soldiers, passersby, and even fellow criminals, revealing the tragedy of humanity's rejection of its Creator. The message connects Christ's experience to the lives of believers, reminding Christians that persecution, ridicule, false accusations, and hardship are often part of faithfully following Jesus, just as He warned in Matthew 5 and John 15. A central theme is the call to “take up your cross daily,” recognizing that God can use trials, suffering, and opposition to accomplish His purposes and advance His kingdom. The sermon highlights Simon of Cyrene, who was unexpectedly compelled to carry Jesus' cross, as an example of how God works through seemingly random and difficult circumstances to fulfill a greater plan. By tracing evidence that Simon and his family likely became influential members of the early church, the message demonstrates that God uses even unwanted burdens to shape lives and impact generations. Ultimately, the sermon encourages believers to trust God through whatever cross they are carrying, confident that He has a purpose for every trial and that His plans extend far beyond what can be seen in the moment.

What did Dave 'discover' while golfing up in Oshkosh?

Welcome to episode 135 of The Journey Is the Reward!On this episode, Micah and Brian are back together to recap an incredible milestone celebration—Momma Coleman's spectacular 91st birthday party—along with a fantastic combined aviation meetup in Toms River, New Jersey.Because the airspace is completely packed, the guys are temporarily skipping the listener feedback segment. However, they did hear from their favorite frequent flyer, Listener Lu. Micah thinks she might be stuck in a bit of a holding pattern, though, because her question sounded suspiciously similar to a previous one!Before we get into the weekend's festivities, a quick reminder that Brian is packing his bags for EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, WI this summer. If you are planning to head out to the big event, please drop him a line—he would love to connect with listeners face-to-face.To get out east for Momma Coleman's big celebration, Brian suffered the ultimate frequent flyer tragedy: his United Airlines PlusPoints upgrades failed to clear, leaving him stuck in the back of the bus. But a little economy-class turbulence was a small price to pay to celebrate with Mom, family and friends.The trip got even better on Sunday with a combined aviation meetup. It was wonderful to catch up with old friends and welcome some new faces to the group. The travel and aviation community truly is full of the best people.And finally, while the catering on the plane and the spread in the United Club left a lot to be desired, Brian found culinary redemption on the ground with a classic New Jersey pork roll sandwich… NOT Taylor Ham!So sit back, relax, and enjoy the stories. Because around here, the journey is the reward.As always, our ears are blessed by the utterly soul-stirring, goosebump-inducing sounds of the Madalitso Youth Choir! Their Welcome and Goodbye songs, recorded straight from the Royal Livingstone Hotel in Zambia, are pure magic.You can always find the audio recording at ⁠⁠⁠www.thejourneyisthereward.org⁠⁠⁠.

This sermon examines Jesus' trial before Pontius Pilate in Matthew 27, highlighting the tragic irony of religious leaders who sought ritual purity while plotting the death of the innocent Son of God. The message explores Pilate's historical background, his strained relationship with the Jewish people, and his repeated attempts to avoid condemning Jesus despite recognizing His innocence. Through the contrast between Jesus and Barabbas, the sermon presents a powerful picture of the Gospel: the guilty go free while the innocent is condemned. Barabbas represents sinful humanity, and Jesus willingly takes the punishment that others deserve. The crowd's choice of Barabbas and the religious leaders' declaration, “We have no king but Caesar,” reveal how people often reject God's truth in favor of their own desires, comfort, or power. Pilate's failure to act on what he knew was right serves as a warning that there is no neutrality regarding Jesus—everyone must decide what they will do with Him. Ultimately, the sermon emphasizes that Jesus remained sovereign throughout His suffering, willingly embracing the cross as God's plan of redemption so that sinners could be forgiven and receive salvation through Him alone.

This sermon on Matthew 27:1–10 examines the corruption surrounding Jesus' condemnation, the tragic fate of Judas, and the sovereignty of God working through human evil. It highlights how the Jewish leaders violated their own legal standards through a secret nighttime trial, false testimony, and a predetermined verdict, contrasting their hypocrisy with Jesus' innocence and righteousness. The message then focuses on Judas, who felt deep sorrow and acknowledged his sin but sought relief through the religious system rather than through Christ. Drawing a distinction between worldly sorrow and godly sorrow, the sermon argues that Judas' remorse led him to despair because he placed his hope in the law and corrupt leaders, while Peter's failure ultimately led him back to Jesus, demonstrating true repentance that results in salvation. The sermon further explores why God allowed betrayal and injustice, presenting them as evidence of Christ's kingship, human freedom, and God's sovereign plan to fulfill prophecy and accomplish redemption. Ultimately, the message emphasizes that no religious system, personal reform, or worldly pursuit can save; salvation is found only in Jesus Christ. The darkness of Judas' betrayal, the corruption of the religious leaders, and the suffering of Christ all serve to magnify God's grace, showing that despite humanity's failures, God's redemptive purpose prevails and invites people to run to Jesus rather than trust in the broken things of the world.

On a quiet spring morning in La Crosse,  a twenty-year-old woman was suddenly gone — dead of a heroin overdose in the apartment she shared with her boyfriend. What followed was a legal case that almost never happens: two men charged not with drug delivery, but with homicide. At the center of it all is a law named for a basketball star who died nearly a quarter century earlier — a law that has since sent hundreds of people to prison across Wisconsin, and that raises questions we still don't have clear answers to.  Who is responsible when addiction ends in death? Where does love end and exploitation begin? And what does justice actually look like for a twenty-year-old girl who just simply dreamed of a life working with children? Scott and Mickey discuss the case of Shelby Perkins, her tragic death and the controversial aftermath of it.  In the opening banter, we discuss Oshkosh going Hollywood, and an article describing some of the oldest cold cases in our state, going back hundred(s) of years!  All here, on Episode 63 of Badger Bizarre: "Shelby Perkins."    Facebook Twitter Website Email us:  badgerbizarre@outlook.com   Opening Trailer: Ed Gein Sound Byte : "Hard Copy" - Paramount Domestic/CBS Televsion Frank Lloyd Wright and Jeffery Dahmer Sound Byte - WISN 12 News - Milwaukee, WI Jeffery Dahmer Quotes: "Inside Edition"  - King World/CBS Television/CBS Media   Attribution for Music: Trailer: Composer: Adam Phillip Zwirchmayr https://www.pond5.com/ Intro: https://pixabay.com/ Outro: Composer: Viacheslav Sarancha  https://www.pond5.com/   Attribution for logo design: Red Claw Scratch Photo    Sources:   LaCrosse Tribune - Archives State vs Mitchell Perner - Justia Law Superior Telegram - Archives Therealaudz - Interrogation of Mitchell Perner - YouTube Unsloved Murders and Mysterious Vanishings in WI's Haunting History - Up North News Wisconsin vs Mitchell Perner/Cory Koopman - Police Report   Please visit our wonderful sponsor:  FrameMakers

This sermon on Matthew 26 uses Peter's denial of Jesus as a warning against spiritual overconfidence. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 10:12, it argues that Peter's fall did not happen suddenly but resulted from a series of warning signs: he failed to listen to Jesus' repeated warnings about His coming arrest and death, became boastful about his own faithfulness, neglected prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane, acted impulsively by attacking the high priest's servant, and ultimately followed Jesus “at a distance.” As pressure mounted during Jesus' trial, Peter's confidence gave way to fear, leading him to deny knowing Jesus three times. The sermon emphasizes that Christians can experience great spiritual victories and still stumble if they become self-reliant rather than dependent on God. Yet it also highlights God's grace: Jesus knew Peter would fail, prayed for him, and intended to restore him. Peter's later transformation into a humble and steadfast leader demonstrates that failure does not have to be the end of a believer's story; when met with repentance and reliance on Christ, it can become a catalyst for growth, maturity, and stronger faith.

What does it truly mean to live your faith authentically and respond to God's call to something deeper?In this powerful episode, Father Zach Weber from Oshkosh, Wisconsin joins the conversation to share a dynamic and refreshing perspective on faith, identity, and discipleship.

Through personal insight, spiritual wisdom, and practical encouragement, this episode challenges listeners to pursue a deeper relationship with Christ and trust where God is leading.If you've ever wrestled with fear of judgment, struggled to stay grounded in your faith, or sensed God calling you to more, this conversation will encourage and inspire you to stand firm in who He created you to be.Faithfulness over approval. Identity over image.

Episode 43 | Bob Fieck, CHRO, Wausau Supply Company Grit Is a Choice: Execution and Servant Leadership in the Building Products Industry Bob Fieck has spent 30 years stepping into situations most people would step away from -- broken operations, underfunded startups, businesses in the red, and organizations navigating major cultural change. Today, as CHRO of Wausau Supply Company, he brings that same mindset to one of the LBM industry's most dynamic and fast-growing organizations. In this episode, Bob and Tony cover the career arc that shaped him -- from a safety role at a paper converting operation in Oshkosh to labor relations, executive recruiting, and ultimately CHRO across some of the most complex organizations in manufacturing and distribution. Along the way, Bob developed a three-part leadership framework centered on execution, grit, and servant leadership -- and he breaks down exactly what each one means in practice. Topics covered in this episode: Why his mentor pushed him into HR when he wanted nothing to do with it Managing a two-month strike while sleeping at the plant Being hired before the company existed -- and building an HR function from a hotel conference room The 90-day execution model that transformed an underperforming business unit What Angela Duckworth's research on grit reveals about who actually succeeds How Wausau Supply is building an employer-of-choice culture across multiple brands and distribution centers Why his grandson's Pop Warner football schedule is the real reason he came back to Wisconsin

This sermon focuses on Matthew 26 and uses Jesus' unjust trial before the Sanhedrin as a model for how Christians should handle the trials of life while “growing up” in their salvation. The message emphasizes that following Jesus means learning obedience and spiritual maturity by removing destructive patterns and embracing the life Christ offers. Through Jesus' arrest, false accusations, silence before His accusers, and suffering, believers are shown how to respond when life feels unfair. The central lessons are to let God fight your battles and to speak truth only at the right time. Jesus remained silent when falsely accused, demonstrating trust, self-control, and dependence on the Father rather than reacting in fear or self-defense. Yet when directly asked about His identity, He boldly spoke the truth. The sermon connects this to the believer's need for spiritual discernment, power, love, and self-control through the Holy Spirit. It then broadens into practical teaching from James 5 on enduring life's trials with patience, eternal perspective, perseverance, and trust in God's compassion and purpose. Using examples from Scripture, personal stories, and passages about spiritual warfare and God's promises, the message teaches that trials are unavoidable but can become tools God uses for maturity, perseverance, testimony, and blessing. Ultimately, believers are encouraged to trust God's plan, stand firm in faith, anticipate Christ's return, and remember that God is compassionate, faithful, and actively working even through suffering.

Former Navy and Air Force combat photographer Chris Hibben joins Nik to discuss how his unique aviation background led him to create JetGlow Aviation, an aircraft detailing company based in Oshkosh, WI. Chris explains why aircraft paint, brightwork, and interiors are more than cosmetic – they're part of a critical condition management system that can influence performance, fuel efficiency, perceived safety, and resale value. He shares expert insight on proper washing and polishing techniques, common mistakes that can damage aircraft surfaces, and why often-overlooked details like landing gear wells and cabin leather matter to both owners and clients.

Sticky valves, sleepy valves, and valves destined for the trash are on tap this episode. Email podcasts@aopa.org for a chance to get on the show. Join the world's largest aviation community at aopa.org/join Full episode notes below: Mac is trying to get a cylinder to wake up on his Piper Lance. The engine ran rough, and a magneto clearing procedure didn't help. The number 5 cylinder was dropping off according to the engine monitor. It's also next to the turbocharging exhaust. His A&P thought maybe the injector line being next to the pipe might be causing a problem. It only happens after landing, not while flying. Paul thinks it would be a more widespread issue if the plumbing engineering were the issue. The aux fuel pump stops it from happening. Mike suggests a mixture that's too lean could cause this. They suggest checking the idle mixture rise on shutdown. The rpm should rise 25-50 when pulling the mixture at idle. If it doesn't rise as much it's too lean, and if it rises too much it's too rich. They also suggest running a GAMI lean test to determine if the cylinder is a lean outlier. Conor has a Cessna 150. On the way back from Oshkosh last year he experienced a stuck valve. There was discoloration from being hot when the cylinder was pulled. He leans aggressively. He's wondering if he's leaning too aggressively and is getting the engine too hot. He leans to roughness and enrichens only until it gets smooth. The hosts think the engine has to be in detonation for it to get too hot. The piston tops are fine under borescope, so the hosts think it's fine. Andrew wants to knock the rust off his A&P certificate. The hosts suggest the new Savvy Aviation IA recurrent course. It's a free 8-hour course to help refresh his memory. Beyond that, Paul suggests a 172 course, which is the airplane he plans on buying. There really isn't a hands-on refresher course, according to Colleen. She suggests he could hire an A&P and work alongside him or her to brush up. He could also take an LSA repairman course, which is shorter than a typical A&P course. James is asking about the right time to overhaul an engine. He is in a club with a Diamond that flies about 500 hours a year. When he wrote in there were 1,900 hours on the engine. They were told the turnaround would be three months. They decided to order a reman from Lycoming, which was scheduled to take 15 months. Then they got a notice that it would be an additional 12 months. It ended up only being 17 months. Their club decided that more than three months of downtime wasn't acceptable. If the lead time for engines is more than a year, so how do you listen to the engine when the delay is so long. Paul said you buy consumables, like cylinders. Cylinders can sit on the shelf for a long time.

This message, centered on Matthew 26:47–56, explores Jesus' arrest as a powerful lesson on true spiritual preparedness in the face of conflict. While the scene includes betrayal by Judas Iscariot and the impulsive violence of Peter—who cuts off Malchus' ear—the core focus is on how Jesus responds: with restraint, authority, and trust in God's plan. Though Jesus had the power to resist, He willingly surrendered, demonstrating that His kingdom is not advanced through force but through obedience and spiritual strength. The sermon highlights the apparent tension between Jesus instructing His disciples to carry swords and then rebuking their use, explaining that while practical preparation has value, reliance on physical or worldly means must never replace dependence on God. Believers are reminded that their true battle is spiritual, not against people, and that victory comes through prayer, self-control, humility, and trust in God rather than aggression or self-reliance. Ultimately, the message calls Christians—especially leaders and fathers—to pursue daily spiritual discipline, preparing their hearts and minds so they can respond like Jesus: with love, wisdom, and unwavering faith, even toward enemies.

This message reflects on Gospel of Matthew 26:31–35, where Jesus Christ predicts that His disciples, including Peter the Apostle, will abandon Him despite their confident claims of loyalty. It highlights the tension between human pride and weakness—Peter insists he will never fail, yet Jesus foretells his denial—illustrating a broader truth echoed in Epistle to the Romans that all people fall short and struggle with sin. The sermon emphasizes that failure is not hypothetical but inevitable in human nature; however, God's grace and plan remain unchanged. Even knowing the disciples would fail, Jesus reassures them of restoration and purpose, ultimately commissioning them after His resurrection. The core message encourages believers to trust God, who already knows the outcome, to embrace humility over pride, and to live out courageous faith—not just in words but in actions—understanding that mistakes do not disqualify them from God's ongoing plan

Ryszard Zadow, known also as Richard to many, was interested in flying from birth. Fanned by aviation stories retold by his parents and watching crop dusters deftly maneuver above the orange groves, in his childhood home state of Texas, Ryszard continues to pursue his lifetime passion for flight.Ryszards mother and father supported his interest in aviation. He remembers one notable adventure in which his father brought him to a Confederate Air Force air show when the CAF was still based in Harlington, TX.When Ryszard was 15, a local celebrity named Al Cisneros, hometown hero and school alumni was visiting the students and signing autographs at St Joes (Go Bloodhounds). Encouraged by his mother to go speak with the decorated Vietnam War veteran and Blue Angel pilot. Al signed Ryszards program.Ryszard moved up through the cadet ranks in the Civil Air Patrol and persevered toward earning his pilot license by any means possible. He built time at Weiser Air Park and solo'd at the David Wing Hooks Airport in Houston in his late teens. He earned his private pilot license while attending University at Texas A&M where he helped found the A&M Skydivers club and personally flew jumpers. Ryszard joined the Army National Guard and earned a commission in January 1983 with the Navy. Among his many accomplished roles for the military, Ryszard flew as a Radar Intercept officer on F-14 Tomcats and eventually completed his career as an A-4 Adversary instructor.He left the Navy after Desert Storm in the early 1990's and accepted a position as a pilot for TWA and later Southwest Airlines. To his great delight, Ryszard one day found himself on the flight deck of a Southwest 737 flying with his childhood hero Al Cisneros! Ryszard remains close with Al to this day and describes him as an Uncle. Ryszards Canard experience goes back almost as long as his career. In 1983 Ryszard purchased the MILLETT VARI-EZE N930L. Many years later, he had the opportunity to purchase the Cozy Jet N722 "Kerosene Dreams" built by Greg Von Richter and flew it on a return to Oshkosh. These days he's slumming around in a Berkut N9041H named the Mississippi Queen.Ryszard's commitment to the Rutan canard community runs deep. In 2014 Ryszard established the 501c3 organization known as the Rutan Aircraft Flying Experience (pronounced "raa-fee" for short). In his own words, Ryszard: "founded RAFE to spread the word about the mission and tell the story of the dedication, the commitment and the spirit poured into the aircraft designed by Burt Rutan and built by the Owners."With primary bases of operation in Ellington, TX and Covington, TN, Ryzard recently retired from Southwest Airlines and now dedicates himself to the development of RAFE full time. He lives on a house-boat in Key-mah, TX, mostly because he wasn't able to find a suitable aircraft to live in, yet.Visit RAFE on the web!  https://www.rutanaircraftflyingexperience.org/
