C & S Aviation, Co.


Hey! No fat jokes...it's just the angle of the picture. Besides you should be focusing on the jet!

Dominick was disappointed with the jet's top speed of mach 2.3. He fully expected at least mach 3 given the high amount of carbon and light metal composite parts we used.

A congratulatory kiss made things all better.

Dominick proudly displays my blue jet and his red jet (it might have been the other way around though, it's hard to tell since we are both so talented...somewhere in the neighborhood of Davinci or Michelangelo).

A close up view of some schematics you will likely see in the Smithsonian in a special exhibit based on the greatest father son aviation teams of all time (including other galaxies).

The boys got into a little aviation over the weekend a few weeks ago. It started out with a conversation about a pending flight on JetBlue, which morphed into a drawing contest that saw the advent of JetRed and Dominick drawing his first jet. That wasn't enough to quash the flying flame that was burning so we turned to three dimensional contruction with the help of a K'Nex set. As you can see from the pictures, we ended the day with complex aerodynamics and propulsion via rocket science. I know, it's not easy to keep the attention of ADD geniuses, but it does result in funny days.
