Alan Cathcart was just six years old when he used to look out the window and see planes taking off at Enniskillen Airport.
His father was one of the workers who helped to develop it on behalf of the local council, carrying stones across to the Killadeas Road airfield which remains standing to this day.
Growing up opposite the airport just outside the Co Fermanagh town, it ignited an interest in aviation which Alan would carry through to later years when he became a qualified pilot. Alan eventually bought the airport from the local council in 2004 and it remains in his ownership to this day.
