“To Fly IS HEAVENLY – TO HOVER IS DiVINE”

Help Stamp out Fixed Wings

 

Well gang, here we are once again for the twentieth time. Can you believe it???? As many of you know, Jan & I retired to Florida back in May. Well, retirement didn’t last very long. It seems that as soon as we felt settled in, we got bored so both of us went back to work full-time. So much for the days of early retirement!!!!  Bill Jaynes….. We don’t live too far from you and hopefully will get a chance to visit. We are just North of Daytona.

Just to show how small the world really is, my neighbor across the street just happened to be an HH-43 pilot (Ed Waller). We’ve become good friends and hopefully we are going to do a story on him sometime in the near future as he has a few good stories up his sleeve. My neighbor up the street was a former F-4 Pilot who rotated back to the states just before his Squadron was sent to RAF Upper Heyford, my old base. Needless to say there are war stories to be told!!!!! Our wives will hate us!!!

 

Oh well, enough of my gibberish. “ON WITH THE SHOW”
