Open Skies for All
From: ECN - 04/25/2014

Captain Stewart McQuillan, who worked as both engineer and pilot in the Royal
Air Force, has developed the Aeroleg, a not-so-innovative name for a pretty
innovative product, which allows paraplegics to fly. The captain's design
helps those without the use of their legs not only control the foot pedals of
a helicopter, but gives them a gentle touch.
