I'm '''pjedvaj''' on the official Forum, Wiki, SVN and FGUK.  I've been active developer from 2010 and had a chance to learn a lot about 3D modeling, illustration and programming with the help of FlightGear community.
I'm retired from FG development.
 
== About me ==
I've got interested in aviation in the early '90s during the Croatian War of Independence. Since then I was making wooden models and plastic kits, painting aviation art and even tried as a military pilot cadet in 1998.
 
=== Me and FlightGear ===
First time I've noticed FlightGear in a repository of a GNU/Linux distribution. I've tried to run it with no success. In 2010 a developer named [[xsaint]] contacted me about permission to use my SketchUp model in FlightGear and with his patience and help I was hooked. At first I was just modeling, later I've learned to texture, animate and even make simple FDMs. It was a nudge to get my degree as a 3D designer and to learn programming.
 
=== Me and the FlightGear community ===
I've spent a lot of time on forum and wiki trying to learn more. Meanwhile I've met a group of developers that I enjoy working with and moved my hangar and most of activity to [http://www.fguk.eu FlightGear UK].
 
=== My lack of real flight experience ===
I am no pilot or aviation engineer, even with my military pilot cadet experience. Few times I actually flew was as only a passenger.
 
=== What I do on this Wiki ===
Usually I write articles about my own aircrafts but I would really like to contribute on how to make a aircraft pages and translate Wiki to Croatian.
