Boy Who Flew With Condors - Dick Johnson? Other Comments
Chris Jury was a local Tehachapian. Jury Road is where their ranch was, I think his dad was an airline pilot. Chris died in a plane accident I believe in the 70s.
Margaret Birsner and her brother John flew gliders with Fred Harris here in Tehachapi. John was at Stanford when the show was made and now is a retired ob/gyn physician in Lancaster, ca. Margaret was attending a private Catholic high school in the bay area when the show was made. She married an older physician and I believe is now living in Israel. Margaret and John's dad was J.W. Birsner, a prominent radiologist in Bakersfield and Lancaster. John told me that he and others were concerned that Margaret might be exploited by the capitalist Disney Corp - remember this was the 60s.
