Dang! Two guys we
haven’t heard from in a long time coming out of the woodwork at the same
time!
Lynn and Ed! What has
been going on with you guys lately?
Bill
I have been on the
other rotary list and on the "No pistons" list.
I got out of racing so
the car is for sale. My BD-4 is still hanging from the ceiling in the shop. It
is for sale.
I will never finish it.
My wife died two years back, and my ambition seem to have died as well.
I live in Zephyrhills
Florida in the winter and go to Sun&Fun each year. Seems empty in the engine
tent now with just the Cozy girls and no other rotary stuff.
I fly radio controlled
model planes from 7:00 AM till about 10:30 AM or, whenever the wind picks up. We
fly combat with foamies at quiting time. No streamers, just kill the other guys
plane. The foamies are made from Dollar Tree foam sheets and hot glue. Great
bunch of old timers including real pilots and ex military. Cookouts every
Saturday. They even fly at night with lights on the planes. Too difficult for
these old eyes.
The field is so big and
well kept that actual airplanes land once in a while. Ultralights are welcome.
The owner is a model plane nut and so very nice.
I have extra beds and
bath if anyone needs a room and transport to Sun&Fun. Or if you fly into ZPH
or close by, I can pick you up. I have a spare van to loan for
guests.
