Asked in a different way: is an mvp a bucket of water or a survey that asks 'sign up to our mailing list if you'd like us to build a bucket of water?' I'm not being facetious I'm actually confused on this point…

Additionally he has, not only his pilot's license, but his APTL license (which requires 1500 flight hours) and is a certified Flight Instructor who has made a round-the-world flight in 10 days.
I also had the same issue, oddly enough it got worse as i got more accustomed to the program. I think mainly because I was visually counting the boxes from the right to left.

Thats a hell of a downgrade.
Anyone can be a cofounder. Most often its friends, or friends of friends, but sometimes its an interested professor(MIT has a long history of this) or random people in your study group that show an aptitude in the field. I would strongly advise you to approach everyone with your idea, explaining what you hope to achieve and the possible setbacks/technical hurdles to come. Ask everyone you know if they know anyone who does something similar. If they come back at you with a few good ideas, or approach the problem from an angle you haven't thought of, then you have a candidate. Eventually you'll find someone as enthusiastic and interested in the area as you, which is perhaps the most important trait, and its a good indication of the type of person who will stick it out and help you change the world.

"Think about oxygen. Necessary for life now, but oxygen is actually a metabolic poison, a corrosive glass, like fluorine. When oxygen was first produced as a waste product by certain plant cells some three billion years ago, it created a crisis for all other life on earth. Those plants were polluting the environment, exhaling a lethal gas. Earth eventually had an atmosphere incompatible with life. Nevertheless, life on earth took care of itself."
Stanford has a wonderful Entrepreneurial Archive with hundreds of podcasts, lectures, etc. all related to entrepreneurship. And its sponsored by Draper Fisher Jurvetson.
It's been my #1 resource.
