Default RE: Airplane Magazines

Ed,

Thanks for all your years of effort. I have a very good friend who does a column in R/C Report. Dick Watz, is as good a scale competitor as has ever taken pen to paper. I can't wait to see how he comes out with the C-195. I have wanted to do this one for years. The guy who used to do the flight sequences for the old Sky King TV show grew up next door to me, and was the Chief Pilot for Cessna. He would fly in to see his Mom about twice a month, and used to fly in with a 195 a lot. Then the 310 came along, and he would land one of those in our pasture as well. I never did like the 310 as much as the 195. I guess that was the last Cessna with a soul. The pilot's name? Bill Fergueson. Still alive and kicking, and lives half the year Down Under, and the other half in Nashville.

By the way, thank you for your extended service to our Country. And thanks for your column in the best magazine out there. I wouldn't own up to it in front of Gordon, but he is an asset to our hobby as well. Hope to see you at Top Gun this coming year.
