About Paul

Paul Furnee, who is known worldwide to be a Lake expert, has more than twenty five years of Lake manufacturing experience, and over twelve thousand hours flying the Lake Aircraft all over the world. As such, is probably the highest time Lake pilot anywhere.

Furnee's background, as an aeronautical and mechanical engineer, coupled with his knowledge and expertise was instrumental in the design of various Lake Aircraft models such as the EP, the Renegade, Turbo 270, and the military version, the Seawolf.

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 Aircraft. In this capacity he became knowledgeable about every aspect of the design and manufacture of the aircraft, and in fact contributed heavily to the design and development of the later model aircraft.
