years of Marine Corps Aviation experience.
In the Marines, Rob was trained by McDonald Douglas on the AV-8B aircraft.

learned many skills that make him uniquely qualified for every aspect of
interior refurbishment. When Cypress closed in 2004, Rob started RDI with
himself and one helper. His first job was a complete interior on a Lear 55
for one of Cypress Aviations previous customers.
Since that first job, RDI has worked on everything from a Cessna 150,
to many different models of Bells, Hughes,
Agustas, Citations, King Airs, Hawkers, Lear Jets, JetStars, Beechjets,
Challengers, Merlins, Falcons, Gulfstreams, and everything in between.
Rob’s energy and passion for what he does is unsurpassed in the aviation
industry.
