Steve Jobs has influenced many people in this world, myself included. It’s also fair to say his creative thinking has been at the forefront of helping even X-Plane get where it is today.

I’ll always stay connected with Apple. I hope that throughout my life I’ll sort of have the thread of my life and the thread of Apple weave in and out of each other, like a tapestry. There may be a few years when I’m not there, but I’ll always come back

– Steve Jobs, 1985
