I'm Austin Meyer

I'm the developer behind X-Plane and Xavion,
and the filmmaker behind The Patent Scam.
I also built my airplane N844X with a team and have made many other Apps.

I have learned about the absurdity of the United States Patent System
by being sued by a Patent Troll for using the Google Store.

Stuff I am doing:

DEVELOPING

I am the owner and founder of Laminar Research, and author of the flight simulator X-Plane. I am the owner and founder of X-Avionics, and author of the backup avionics App Xavion

BUILDING

I built N844X (with a professional team of helpers), which I currently fly about the Country, interviewing Patent Trolling victims for my documentary.

FILM-MAKING

I am being sued by Uniloc, a subsidiary of The Marathon Patent Group (NASDAQ: MARA) for using the Google Play store to sell my App. I am making a documentary called “The Patent Scam” to expose this quite unbelievably wretched practice.

HELPING

Philanthropically, I helped fund the Meyer/Finlay Pet Adoption Center, and the Meyer Scholar Scholarship.
