I enjoyed watching American Hotrod and the cars that they produced, But Boyd himself, I was not a fan. He had the man management skills of...........fill your own name of a 20 century dictator. No wonder so many of his best people left over time. He could use emotional blackmail better than most women working out how to fund the next shopping trip.
I wonder what will happen to the company though. Did he have any children to take over or will it come down to the Ex-wife and the wife fighting it out in the courts.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
