Bill Harrelson gave a fabulous talk yesterday at the Suffolk fl= yin.  Really excellent.
 
For those who missed his presentation, I might suggest you go out of = your way to listen to him present when he does it again.  It was well = well worth the trip to listen to his stories.
 
He touched on the design and construction of 6ZQ, th= e role of external pressures, FAA interest in his plane, the interest of Homeland Se= curity in a VFR test flight (east coast to west coast to east coast, non st= op, 100% VFR with no ATC communication.  They noticed and made polite = inquiries.),=0A sleeping (well, not sleeping) on long flights, the years of= flight planning it takes to do a flight like his, people along the way, Pe= ntagon awareness of his travels, thoughts on death, the role of ground crew= , and so much more.  With lot's of photos.
 
I could have listened to him for hours.  Days= .  He is a really amazing aviator.  And nice fellow.
 
Like everyone on this list I have l= istened to lectures, off and on, for many decades.  Normally something= interesting to be found in each.  But every now and then there is som= eone really exceptional.  I consider Patty Wagstaff and Carol Ann Garr= ett as two of the genuinely best ever, in any field, public presenters.&nbs= p; And now, in my book Bill joins this=0A group.  He is not just an amazing designer= and builder, and planner and adventurer, but also a truely world-class pub= lic presenter.
=  
Thank yo= u Bill for the presentation yesterday.  Thank you even more for enabli= ng so many of us, me included, to live a hair vicariously through you, and = to celibrate your ground-breaking R&D and flying.
 
-Bill Kahn (Cessna 182 pilot.  Not= near a good enough pilot, or builder, to do a Lancair)
