USC Engineering School Alumni Profile
“My real-world experiences as a pilot and aerospace engineer
give me a specifically unique perspective when designing unmanned air
vehicles and systems for airplanes. The really great part is being able
to truly appreciate airplanes and aircraft engine designs not only for
their historic and aesthetic value, but also as a clear manifestation of
functional art.”

Aero Telemetry's WWI Kettering Bug full size replica
Initially commissioned for a History Channel Television Show
commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the start of World War I, the
full-size replica of the Kettering Bug will now be the subject of an intense
one-hour TV documentary that will feature the various aspects of the airplanes
design, it’s secretive military history, the famous people behind the
development, and the airplane’s contribution to the advancement of early
aviation technology.
The background and technical details of the Kettering Bug
have been meticulously researched for historical accuracy and re-designed with
many of the same materials and techniques that were used to build the original.
In commemoration of the 100 year anniversary of WWI, this amazing full-size
replica is being prepared for its first flight by Joe Bok and his Aero
Telemetry Team.
