I would like to announce the birth of a new baby in the hangar of DoubleD. Although its legal name is "GeeBee" I have elected to nickname it "Whiz". Conception was in the warehouse of a well known hobby supplier in the deep south a few months ago. I think the name is Morris.

Life began at approximately 9:00 PM this evening in a spectacularly strewn shop not far from the site of the 1st Annual Profile Brotherhood Fun Fly.

I am hopefull that this one is not cruelly snatched from the air like its twin brother was a couple weeks ago. Its brother was aquired from a man named Jens and flew very well until its health started failing due to a flight with its cousin which was flown by a fella named "GATOR". Oh well, I think it was "Jensxed" anyway!

You'll notice by the picture that the birth was a little premature, its weight now only a few ounces. But don't despair, "GeeWhizBee" will be about 4 pounds in just a few days. They grow up so fast you know!

I can't wait to see it gain some color and sprout arms and legs. Just to watch it leave the ground and fly STRAIGHT UP, into the wild blue yonder, powered by an alcohol burning red engine built in England will be a sight ot behold!

Loops, Water Falls, Knife Edge Hovers into the wind and anything else just for the delight of the pilot! Wow, I think this one might be the best yet! Could it be that this one will live forever? All that tender loving care and pride. All the anticipation. Surely
it will survive!.............NOT!

Oh well, at worst it will be an organ donor! And, I'll bet there's another one in that warehouse with my name on it when the time comes!
