My Favorite Aircraft! Are both Boeing Products! The Boeing V-22 Osprey and The Boeing AH-64 Apache!

True fact: I have never been on an airplane, and I'm not sure if I ever will. But I do find them fascinating. I'm an avid fan of Kermit Weeks, who is one of the world's greatest aviation experts who has spent much of his life preserving and restoring a wide variety of aircraft produced since the Wright Brothers. He houses one of the largest personal collections of vintage aircraft in the world at his private airport in Florida.

I particularly like the concept of flying boats, they just appeal to me as very utilitarian and useful. Kermit is the owner of one of the last existing Short Sunderland flying boats, which he personally flew from England to the US and remains in full flight-ready condition today.

My son's first experience riding in an aircraft was in an Open-Cockpit Biplane!

Holy cow! That must have been quite the experience!
