Don Feight
Feight Studios was established in 1994 by Paula & Don Feight inspired by the aerospace and aviation art Don was producing at his job at Lockheed Martin. Don has worked at Lockheed Martin for over thirty-three years as a graphic artist. Airplanes have been a lifelong passion from his early years living on Air Force bases, model building, and drawing airplanes, through the eventual building and flying of a homebuilt Glasair RG aircraft later as an adult.
Much of the inspiration for Don's aviation art comes from his experiences during as a pilot. The low-level flight over the water in "Madman," the blue hole in the dark storm clouds in "Lightning," and the spinning ground in "Performance" are a few examples of experiences of actual flying used to produce aviation art images.
Unlike many aviation artists, Don's passion is for the aircraft and flying above all else.

De Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver Float Plane
Regarded as the one of the best of the “bush planes,” the de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver is a single-engine, high-wing, propeller-driven, STOL aircraft developed by de Havilland Canada for flight operations in remote and rugged areas of the world. Its outstanding short takeoff and landing capabilities make it ideal for hauling cargo and passengers into and out of wilderness areas usually only accessible by foot or canoe. Enhancing the planes utility, the design can easily be fitted with wheels, skis or floats.. The first flight of the DHC-2 occurred in 1947 and by 1967 when production ended, 1,657 had been built and hundreds of them are still flying today. The Beaver was also used by many armed forces as a utility aircraft including the U.S. Army. This image depicts a Beaver float plane on an Alaskan sightseeing excursion gathering some exciting stories to be told when the passengers are back at home.
