“It would be a waste of the weather not to go flying”
Bob van Es
Co-founder · Aircraft mechanic · PilotBob van Es is an aircraft mechanic, pilot, model flyer, harbour master and all-round aviation enthusiast. For years, Bob hasn’t been away from an aircraft and/or airfield for more than two weeks. This handy Bob can tell you everything about the technical side of our aircraft — and about the aircraft ACE still dreams of.
“But we could also take the plane…”
Bob Klynstra
Co-founderBob Klynstra once sold his electric guitar to buy a model aircraft. The ten seconds the model survived were more than worth it. That was the first feat in Bob’s aviation-hobby career. Many followed, and many more will come. Aircraft Company Europe is an expression of this hobby.
