Rich,

Sorry I could not meet up with you at AJO last Saturday. But I heard you and my Brother, Chris, got to meet. He really liked your Thorp. I'm real proud of him. He is an extremely accomplished guy - raced formula 1 aircraft, built two formula 1 racers of his own design and also an Oskhosh Grand Champion. Which I had the talent in his little pinky, but know. I just hold parts, make some and write checks. He taught me how to fly our Thorp over 10 years ago.

Hope we have a chance to meet with you again. We are trying to get to OSH this year. If not with the new bird then we will bring the old one.

Take care,

Brent Schultz

Brent : Easy flight up to Corona ! 8) Been to Spruce by car many, many times , but it was good to fly into Corona for the first time . Let me tell you there was NO pressure landing as I found out later that the "top deck" was full of critics ! Got to see both of your aircraft and the great stories that Chris told me ! :) The Ken Brock project is moving right along and will be a great flyer ! I can now see how the Prado Dam can flood the airport ! About 35 minutes each way , so come on down to KSEE ! :P "So call me maybe ?" BOOM !
