Sea Plus was incorporated some years ago to sell hovercraft. Hence the name. It has been inactive for many years, but has now been reactivated as a sailplane maintenance company.

Sea Plus, Inc. is owned and operated by Roger
Fowler. Roger's first exposure to composite
structures was when he worked as an engineer at
Boeing Helicopters. He has also worked as an
engineer at Piper Aircraft, Lord Corp., and IBM. He
has worked with composites in various projects and repairs over the years. During the last 13 years he has been doing more and more fiberglass sailplane repairs.

He earned his A&P certificate in 1973 and has used it to work on many antiques as well as production aircraft. He holds an Inspection Authorization and has worked as director of maintenance for a Part 135 charter company.

Roger learned to fly sailplanes at Kutztown, PA, in 1973. He has since been a member of the Rochester Soaring Club in NY and the North Carolina Soaring Association. He has flown at many gliderports in Pennsylvania, California, Texas, Vermont, Georgia, Tennessee, and the Carolinas and Virginia. He holds a gold badge with two diamonds and has claimed the Boomerang trophy and Kittyhawk trophy multiple times. He also holds two North Carolina State Records. At the present time, he is the president of the North Carolina Soaring Association and a member of the North Carolina Soaring Foundation.

Over the years, Roger has owned a DeHavilland Tiger Moth, Evans Volksplane, Volmer Sportsman, Fairchild PT-19, and a Benson Gyrocopter. He has been a partner in a Schraeder HP-11A and a Standard Cirrus sailplane. Currently he owns and flies a Standard Libelle. SEA PLUS, INC. ROGER FOWLER
