Now if ONLY we can come up with a solution for the infamous middle of the sentence pause ; "You know...............and the even MORE famous......"right" . :-))

Makes me feel "old". :-)) All my old stomping grounds are now parking lots or shopping malls :-))

Usenet I'm afraid has become the poster child for those involved with and interested in aviation discussion migrating over to the moderated format.

Thank you. Glad to be aboard. :-)

Sounds like a Tai run to me :-) Lou Cristaldi and I were the CFI'S at Hi line right next door to you folks. Small world indeed :-)

Thanks. Glad to be here. Looks like a great forum.

P51D. I try and avoid those pesky "area 51" questions :-))

Small world Rod. I was probably the instructor at Hi Line when you were flying at Turner. I was inbound with a charter the day young Turner was killed on the ridge. I don't think Art ever got over it.

Thank you. We actually live right in the middle between Wings and Wilmington. ILG was my home base for many years so I still consider it as home :-)

Hi, and thanks. Those war story sessions can be fun indeed. Perhaps we can get together sometime time and circumstances permitting. The IFPF was a great organization with great people. I'm afraid my "exploits" would pale considering the caliber of the membership we had :-)

Many thanks. The old airport (ILG) has changed a lot since I was there. We had a Cessna 336 based over at Atlantic and I had a Mustang there for a while. Ran an aerobatic school out of the old T Hangars past the old Summit Hangar way back when. Lots of good memories there :-)

Hi Bob; I think we should have done this a long time ago :-))

We're in Penna.

Thanks. I'm beginning to think, after posting on Usenet for about 10 years, that a moderated forum is the only way to have any meaningful discussion about aviation :-)

Unbelievably small world :-) We live a few miles from you. I was an instructor at Wings when Bill Mumery and Bob Latch were there back in the sixties. I take it you mean Jim Sr. and his 51 Bald Eagle. Beautiful airplane.

Thank you very much.

No. Been retired for some time now, but good buddy Patty Wagstaff is flying Jim Beasley's 51 and I believe Patty has flown Air Venture.

Thank you. I've been posting on Usenet now for ten years. My wife finally convinced me it just isn't the same any more. Many good pilots and just plain nice people are leaving the venue in droves. It's a shame really. Many students come to Usenet for help and assistance.

There have indeed been some "ups and downs" :-)

If anyone has any specific 51 questions, please feel free to shoot um off to me. :-)
