I served in the United States Air Force as a crew chief on F-4D Phantom fighters. During my service I obtained my FAA Airframe and Powerplant (A&amp;P) certificate. In 1987 I received my honorable discharge and started RagWing Aircraft Designs. I offered maintenance work, Ultralight Flight Instruction, Homebuilt Inspection, and technical counseling, Ultralight<br \/>\nFirst Flight tests, Prototype design and construction, DAR signoffs and the selling of plans and kits to the homebuilder.<br \/>\nI have been selling plans since 1991 and many homebuilts have been built from plans that I provided.<\/p>\n<p>Later I became interested in sailing. In 2010, I built the original<br \/>\nPuddleCat 8 and began selling plans. In 2011 I designed and built the<br \/>\nPuddleCat Adventure.<\/p>\n<p>Be sure to check out the <a title=\"Designs\" href=\"http:\/\/rogermann.org\/puddlecat\/designs\/\">Designs<\/a> Pages for pictures and videos of the existing models and a sneak peek at what\u2019s coming soon.
