Thank you very much to both you CJ, and others on these groups who have
taken the time to be a friend.


Now we know the date... what was the year? Is it true there were
pteradactyls in the pattern when you soloed? G



Well, there IS this sort of folk lore story on the net about the time I
attended a Cub Scout meeting as a guest to address the scouts and answer
questions about flying. After my little "speech", one small fellow in the
back raised his hand and when I called on him, he asked me what Wilber and
Orville Wright were REALLY like :-))



Yeah...but what were the Montgolfier brothers like?


Big windbags....both of um'
