Anyone who has been around aviation in the greater Columbia area for awhile knows this guy ... and quite a few folks from afar! He was one of the aircraft judges this year at Sun-n-Fun 2008. His name is Xen Motsinger, and he has been involved in aviation for many, many years. He has been an active member of EAA Chapter 242 since its inception and continues to be part of that group. We are also proud to now have him as a member of our chapter.

Below is a photo of Xen beside his very nice, and previously award winning, Aeronca Champ.
