Hi!
Fran?ois is a good friend of mine, he's always around when we do fly-ins here.
I know that when we landed and cleared customs, a guy came to ask me to be the chase plane for a shoot with a B-25 and a P-51 and I declined because I was too slow for those two aircrafts! In the summer, with the cowl flaps opened, 130 KIAS is something we see only from time to time. So you must have talked to me, since I was the pilot and my father was acting as the SIC this time. I told someone to use a T-6 for the chase plane, much faster!
About that article, was it in Canadian Aviation or something like that?

If I'm not gone working somewhere up North for the summer, I'll come down to Oshawa with either the Fw or with the Beaver as a pax. We'll catch up with the "Plein Vol" crew over there. I already have very nice pictures of the Fw in the air, taken by a friend of mine and Fran?ois who's a pro photographer, but he mostly does publicity for magazines and government. Those shots he took are something!!
