With the upcoming release of Laminar Research's X-Plane 12 flight simulator, I've been watching a handful of Austin Meyer interviews. He's the inventor of X-Plane, head of the company, a pilot, coder-in-chief, and entrepreneur in the finest sense.
He's such a damn perfectionist getting the physics of flight correct in his simulator, along with weather, reflection, water, and on and on. It's crazy the level of detail he sweats, but something I really admire. He's also very amusing to watch; perhaps a bit eccentric, but in a very endearing way.
