RE: Something for Del Johnson
ORIGINAL: Prop Nut It was a good day, Del would have enjoyed it. Sorry that I missed Greg, he must have arrived after Michelle and I left. Thanks again to Joe and GCRCC Hi David, I didn't get there until sometime around 2:30-3 o'clock. Nonetheless, I wanted to bring a Fokker to the memorial fly-in. Sorry I missed you & Mike, I was hoping to catch you guys there, but understand that you had a very long drive to make. I know Del appreciated the haul you guys had to make from Michigan. best regards, Greg |
RE: Something for Del Johnson
ORIGINAL: Lucky Dog I'd also like to to thank all involved in Del's memorial fly-in. I had a great time and I was really proud to be a part of the Fokker Flight (thanks to Russ Kuhn for prompting me to get the prop back on and get up with the gaggle). A 21 wing salute, how appropriate! I was also happy to entertain with my ''knife edge'' take-off earlier. [X(] And on a nice calm day to boot. Where's a nice crosswind when you need one.? Some day I'll learn to fly......maybe. Thanks to those who took photos and video. Greg, Sorry to miss you as well. I wish I'd been able to stay longer. I am quite sure that Del enjoyed watching all the fun, and I feel honored to have known him. That being said, let's hope that there's no need for another similar event for a long time. Hey Mike, Sorry I missed you too; I got a lot going on these days with the kids & church. I was doing all I could to get there in the afternoon. :) Did you get your engine to quit back-firing? I see the reference to "get the prop back on"... Sounds ominous. -Greg |

Thanks for raising the bar and being a true friend....... Cheers, HPA |
