Hey Eric Greenwell? You still flying around Richland Washington? I flew with you, and towed you years ago when I worked at PNL. It's pretty arid out there ... but nobody finds good thermals coming up off the big irrigated crop circles. In desert terrains stay away from green like the plague.

Yes, I am! Retired for a long time now, but still flying, but with motorgliders.


I moved east to SUNY-Albany in '89 ... didn't fly for years. Got back into it about 4 years ago. I'm retiring gradually at the moment, have one more graduate student to push out the door. At the moment I have a Discus B and a Ka-6 that is in the process of a major rebuild.

My family is still in Seattle, I like flying out on the lee side of the Cascades ... if I can persuade Annie maybe we'll even move back ... but even if I don't do that I'll come out to Ephrata one of these days...

Cheers,
