David Williford N909EZ Wright StaggerEZ COBA CanardCast

    • Aviation

In this episode, we will get to know your CanardCast host David Williford and his aircraft N909EZ a little better. David Willford joined the Canard Owners and Builders CanardCast team as Host last season. David is now the care taker, pilot and restorer of a very special three place pusher canard with unique staggered seating arrangement as well as a dizzying array of builder enhancements based at McKinney National KTKI.

StaggerEze, built by Steve Wright, won Grand Champion Plans Built at Sun and Fun in 2005. Steve Wright also earned the Rutan Designer’s Award for his, Built “to the plans” Vari-Eze N9091A in 1986.

David and his wife Ginger of 32 years live in a Dallas suburb called "The Colony" and have two adult kids, 27 yr old son Ryan and his daughter 24 year old Sarah who teaches elementary school music in the DFW area. David is retired from a successful career in Information Technology.

Following this interview, you can find CanardCast Episode 2 simultaneously released where David and his daughter share a conversation on the topic of canard flights. I conducted this interview with David in-person at his home studio and workshop in Texas. I hope you enjoy this episode and all the rest coming in Season 3!
