AUTHOR PROFILE — BARRY CLARE Barry Clare is an American entrepreneur, storyteller, and former aviation executive whose unwavering belief in impossible dreams has shaped his professional journey. Best known for his decade-long mission to help launch Baltia Air Lines—an ambitious effort to build a U.S.-flagged transatlantic carrier from the ground up—Clare brings a unique insider perspective to one of the most extraordinary startup stories in modern aviation. Born with a natural gift for communication and a passion for American enterprise, Clare built a successful career in business development before stepping into the high-stakes world of commercial aviation. His ability to inspire confidence and rally investors around big ideas—combined with his relentless work ethic—made him a driving force behind Baltia’s fight for FAA certification, aircraft acquisition, and public-market positioning. Clare personally witnessed moments that few outsiders ever see: the resurrection of a retired Boeing 747 under the desert sun, midnight strategy sessions inside airport offices, and the crushing regulatory and financial barriers faced by a fledgling airline daring to challenge the industry giants. His firsthand experience—equal parts triumph and heartbreak—forms the foundation of "Wings of the Impossible". Written with candid detail, emotional depth, and the perspective of a man who never stopped believing, Clare’s work stands as a testament to perseverance, loyalty, and the American dream. Today, he continues to champion entrepreneurial visionaries and remains an advocate for those bold enough to chase ideas that others call impossible. Barry Clare is not just the chronicler of the Baltia story—he is a central character in it.
