Owners, builders, and pilots who fly differently. Welcome to the tribe.
Real owners. Real aircraft. Real missions.
Weekend flying, cross-country trips, and teaching his son to fly in the Marlin. "Nothing else gives you this much freedom with this level of simplicity."
Bush operations and remote lake access with the Marlin. "Amphibious changes everything when you live off the grid."
Weekend amphibious flying along the Gulf Coast. "I fly off the water behind my house. Try doing that in a Cessna."
After 30 years in the left seat of a 737, the Marlin Signature Series is pure flying joy. "This is why I became a pilot."
Built the Marlin in 6 days at the builder assist center. "I walked in with no experience and flew home a week later."
Using the Marlin for environmental monitoring along the Carolina coastline. "Practical aviation that actually does something."
