Default Looking for Multi-Generational Soaring Families!!!!!!!!

Sort of...

My oldest brother, Jessie Womack, was old enough to be my father, and
most folks thought he was. My dad passed away when I was only 3. Jessie
took me to TSA, Odessa, Hobbs, Georgetown, etc. during my young years.
He crewed for Dick Johnson for years, and built many sailplane
trailers. He helped Len Niemi build the Sisu gliders and built 7 of the
11 trailers. He towed many hours at TSA in it's early years and served
as a club officer and general flunky. Jess passed a few years ago.
Because of his influence, my love of soaring has grown steadily. I now
own and fly a PIK-20B out of Littlefield, Texas. I still consider TSA
home...
