The Spaceships of Bill George


Bill George's story is quite incredible. Fond of spaceships since he discovered a book about the making of Star Trek in his youth, he dedicated his life to space ships. Model after model, he finally ended as a production assistant on the model shop during the shoot of the first Star Trek movie. His dream came true when he got hired by Industrial Light and Magic, Georges Lucas’ special effects company… He worked on a lot of movies with spaceships since then. His passion made him create the SCI-Fi Airshow. For this show, he found and repaired numerous spaceships from various TV shows such as the original Battlestar Galactica or movies such as 2001 a Space Odissey. He saved those ships from certain death, repaired them, and now organizes shows all around the States with his mechanics crew. It is rumored that he can also make them fly!
