    Neil's Charles Taylor Master Mechanic Award

    Indeed, we're due for another fine reunion, but it continues to be a very busy year! I got to see Mike, Arlie, Ron and Renee last April and was privileged to meet Marty before that, but I've made little time since with work and our big AirFest. Julie humbly refers to herself as an airport...

    ...Tonight I'm reminded of what a small and wonderful world it is when I received an email from my good friend and one of our hardest working air show promoters, Julie - of one of our most respected and generous GT/CS friends, Papa Neil upon Julie visiting his airport. What a nice surprise! :-)

    ...No, I didn't buy it Rob ;-) 'Was just along with a friend and a visit... I did recently buy a whole bunch of early Mustang & Falcon stuff though... 'Haven't seen it all yet, but it amounts to about three truckloads for a "come get it all now" price! I'll keep you posted :-)

    Rob, indeed, we maxed the airport this year while wishing more of you would come and experience this. My guarantee is that you would get on the parallel street on the way home and strive to attain take-off speed in your Mustang same as these guys! And yes, the "big blue" is the TBM we...

    Well, Please accept my sincere apology. I mistakenly thought it was a pitch (which is something you never do with these guys if you want them to keep coming) The Warbird community here has become as much the family as this group including a P-51 pilot who has a Highland Green 390 GT/CS...
