    Grew up with aircraft in the family from an early age. My dad built and flew a Long EZ. I started flying gliders in 1997 and progressed to the PPL in 2002. Studied Industrial Design from 2004 to 2010, and designed my first concept aircraft the SeaSTOL VLJ in 2007. Worked briefly as an intern at Airbus in 2008. Designed the P2 concept as a diploma project in 2009 and founded Equator Aircraft Norway SA in 2010.
