I am sorry to hear this, I'd always wanted to talk with her about the
Salto and the Libelle. Her "Five-P" (Petite Plastic Plane Patch
Primer) composite sailplane repair manual is one of my favorite pieces
of technical writing; I put it right up there with _How to keep your
Volkswagen alive: A step-by-step guide for the compleat idiot_.

Thanks, Bob K.
