Ken Simons is the founder and inventor of VeloChair. He is also a good friend. I have admired Ken since I first met him back when I was a flight instructor and charter pilot at Somerset Airport back in 1998. Ken was then an executive for a large home building corporation. I was never a flight instructor of his, but I remember Ken taking tailwheel lessons with a fellow flight instructor. He would come out of each lesson beaming. He would have a glow that only comes from the type of joy that arises from the sense of accomplishment of getting better at a thing that you love to do, and thirst to know more about. Being a young flight instructor around an airport is a great experience. You get to rub elbows with older and wiser people who now have the resources coupled with the sense of adventure to do things like learn to fly. Ken’s success as a businessman earned him sole ownership of a Piper Turbo Aztec, a six seat, twin engine plane. I didn’t realize it then but Ken was a living embodiment of the aspects of great leadership. Ken never takes things personally, is slow to judge, and quick to forgive. Now, having retired from construction, he has turned his disability into a gift to the world, by developing his invention the VeloChair.
