In the early 1980's Paul was responsible for the flight testing and certification of the EP model and the Lake 250 Renegade. He was General Manager and Executive VP of Lake Aircraft, Inc. from 1983 thru 1986 and was also responsible for managing Aerofab, Inc., which is the manufacturing facility for Lake.
