Mr. Podradchik, the CEO and co-founder of Seattle Avionics, has a long history starting and running innovative technology firms. Before Seattle Avionics, he was the founder and CEO of Verge Wireless, developer of an innovative handheld wireless device. Prior to that, he was the founder and CEO of Marketwave Corporation, a leading enterprise-class Web traffic analysis firm that was sold to Accrue Software, Inc. in 1999 for about $80 million. Prior to Marketwave, he was the founder and CEO of Medio Multimedia, an award-winning Seattle-based multimedia company. Before Medio, he was a manager at Microsoft. He received his degree from the Wharton School of Business with concentrations in Finance and Marketing.
When he was young, Steve wanted to be an astronaut or at least fly fast planes. After selling Marketwave in 1999, he finally had the time to pursue this interest and got his VFR ticket. He started Seattle Avionics because the whole experience of planning cross-country trips, both as a student and later as a private pilot, seemed far too cumbersome with the software then on the market. He is doing everything possible to make his five-year old son more interested in airplanes than Thomas the Tank Engine -- and it's starting to work.

Robert Hamilton, Hamilton Aviation Marketing
roberth@seattleavionics.com
Mr. Hamilton is the President of Hamilton Aviation Marketing, a Marketing and Web consulting resource for General Aviation. As a Principal for Seattle Avionics, he leads their Web Marketing efforts as well as contributes his Operations and Financial expertise. Previous to starting Hamilton Aviation Marketing Robert was a Senior Manager at the Fluke Corporation, where he built their electrical power business and helped develop the unique Fluke brand. He began his career as a Flight Controls Engineer on the Boeing 747, but soon went back to the Graduate Business School at Harvard to earn his MBA (See HBS magazine article about Mr. Hamilton) and ended up in marketing. Robert is the President of the Washington Pilots Association at Paine Field, and is a member of AOPA, EAA, and DAPO. You can reach him at www.HAMaviation.com.
Many years ago Robert began his love of aviation while flying in a beautifully restored J-3 Cub. It was a while before he learned that planes have radios and instruments, and that they actually fly faster than the automobiles beneath. Currently he owns a Diamond Star DA40 which has lots of fancy instruments and is fun to fly, but no more so than the Cub.
