Jim Campbell
Advisor, Aviation
Jim Campbell, CEO of the Aero-News Network, is a 17,000 hour commercial
pilot and flight instructor, a graduate of the National Test Pilot
School and one of the most active aviation writers and test pilots in
the business. The author of 17 books and an active member of the X Prize
and Zero-G programs, Campbell has flown or evaluated over 1100 unique
flying machines since his first flight some 35 years ago (at age 13).


Somehow, I doubt the veracity of the above credentials... Can't really
say why but how did Jimbo find the time to fly 17,000 hours, write 17
books and fly 1100 different airplanes?? For someone that isn't a
commercial pilot, actually flying a route, to log that number of hours
is doubtful to say the least...

But, I'm sure some people might believe him.....

But, NOT ME... I've met him and heard his grandiose storys...

Did you recognize any particularly "zoomie" names on the "Advisory
Board?"


Those 17 books should be an easy put up or shut up for him. Any chance
one of them was published?
