About Us

     Born at Hahn Air Force Base in West Germany, my father was an F-4 pilot in Triple Nickle T.F.S. and then went on to fly KC-97 and KC-135 tankers and retired as a General.  I'm a pilot myself, and an A&P aircraft mechanic. Also, I was a crew chief for 10 years in the US Air Force for KC-135 Tankers and F-16s.
     My father had some damaged parts from F4's that were laying around the house for 35 years.  I cleaned some of them up, painted them, and designed them into functional furniture using the old parts.  Then, a friend of mine who is a pilot had a landing mishap in a Christen Eagle biplane that hit a taxi light. It ended up needing a new wooden wing spar so I repainted the new one and kept the damaged one. I used the damaged wing to make a nice table with aluminum legs and a glass top.  A lot of friends I have found in the airplane world have helped me in finding parts and items from aircrafts that I can use for furniture.
