And doubly interesting is that its inventor is not a full-time member of the science world, as he flies commercial airplanes for a living.


In his free time, however, Capt. James "Bong" Reamon is on his two-hectare farm in General Santos City in Mindanao.


As early as two decades ago, Reamon, now  51, had crafted a windmill that had won prestigious awards – among them as invention of the year in 1984.
