I can't stop thinking about the pilot that the Pietenpol world lostyesterday.Here is Gene as he was last July, when I picked up his Pietenpol to ferry itto Brodhead for its new owner, Ryan Mueller:And here is the view that he loved so well, looking out of his Pietenpol atthe rolling hills of west Tennessee passing beneath him:At least now he's free of the body that failed him. Tomorrow I'll take myRV-4 up and do a few aerobatics, as I did with him last July,(to his great delight) after I returned from Brodhead. I think he'll bethere with me, just off my left wing. We'll do a couple of formationrolls...Fly well, my friend.Jack PhillipsNX899JP "Icarus Plummet"Raleigh, NC________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: A great deal on Barnstormers
