his mic and held it...

Winch operations in MN? by
[email protected]
My understanding is that Frank Whiteley and Bill Daniels qualified a
commercial operator and several local pilots/CFIs on winch
operations somewhere in Minnesota.
Please tell me which airport and operator contact info?
Were any of you there?

electrolysis of circuit board traces and...
