Thank you Idaho Aviation Association for helping spread the word about our new film, we appreciate the support! #BurtRutanFilm
What pilot doesn't find Burt Rutan fascinating? And Idaho pilots are particularly proud that Rutan is now living here! His "retirement" didn't last long at all, and he's still hard at work doing what he does best---using his unique genius to design wild-looking airplanes that nevertheless perform amazing feats. We want you to know about a new Kickstarter Campaign, to raise funds to complete a new documentary about Rutan:
www.Facebook.com/BurtRutanFilm
antennaFILMS, the Producing/Directing team behind the awardwinning television documentary Black Sky about X-Prize winning SpaceShipOne, has signed on to produce a documentary that follows Aerospace Legend Burt Rutan. The film will highlight the maverick designer’s vast accomplishments, the legacy he created in the field of aviation and his newest “secret garage” venture. Burt Rutan, the champion of homebuilts, the designer of Voyager, SpaceShipOne, and 43 other aircraft that have flown, is building a new plane. Co-Director Scott Guthrie says, “I can’t reveal much about the plane, but it will be a game changer. It’ll do things no plane has ever done before.”
Through the use of Kickstarter, a crowd-funding website, the filmmakers are reaching out to Rutan fans and the aviation community to fund their new film. They currently have the opportunity to capture a unique moment in history by bearing witness to the building and testing of what could be Burt Rutan’s final plane. The filmmakers describe Rutan as one of the greatest innovators of our time and whose accomplishments and story will inspire young engineers and airplane enthusiasts for years to come. Rutan has a record number (five) aircraft on permanent display in the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum. “Even $5 pledges will help,” said Guthrie. “We’ve been to Oshkosh with Burt, we’ve covered SpaceShip events in Mojave since 2004 and we know we will be able to give Burt’s vast fan base a thorough and thoughtful look into his life and accomplishments. And we have some amazing rewards for those interested in pledging!”
