Pieters (and Polers!!),I finally got a call from Randy through some sort of jury-rigged phone line. Heand his boat are OK after the eye of the hurricane went right over him at theSanford marina. He spent the night securing boats for others and trying to keepmarina property safe. The adrenaline didn't quit flowing until early the nextmorning when he collapsed into a heap. Because of the debris and recovery efforts,he hasn't been able to get out to his hangar to see what damage was donethere.His concern right now is about Alan Wise. The Orlando Executive Airport where Alan'sPiet is hangared, is just a field of rubble. We might have lost one of theicons of our little group. Alan bought the Piet from -??- and has been flyingit for about 27 years. It's probably been seen by more people at more fly-insthan any other and Alan has been a tireless ambassador for the design. It willreally be a shame if it's gone. Still nothing from GN-1 pilot and Piet builderTed Brusseau from Naples.There are still T-shirts available but you'll have to mail Randy because of thephone situation. Here's your chance to get a shirt that was designed in Florida,printed in California, driven to Brodhead and has now survived a major hurricane!Randy's address is:Randy BruceP.O. Box 2353Sanford, FL 32772The total cost is still $16 and he gets them out to you within a couple of hoursafter receiving your order.Larry________________________________________________________________________________Date: Mon, 16 Aug 2004 14:00:35 -0400
