Serious, the warbird movement (We all) is really lucky to have people like Glenn, and Steve Hinton, Bob Hill, John Lane, Neal Melton, etc who give so much of their time flying these 'finicky' aircraft all over the place, and they're really down-to-earth people to hang around with too.

Absolutely Rich!
very well said.

Thanks guys!

It was a great day to fly and everything fell into place for the trip. Eric picked me up at Toronto Island Airport after I finished work; the folks at Russell's were waiting for us to help get the plane ready; customs was there on our arrival and we were done in about 2 minutes. After a "runway wind check" or two, Austin and Craig were there to park us and help button her up. Then Austin drove us back to Russell's. Except for drive-through food, overall a great day. The plane ran well and the company was outstanding!

See you at the show.

Glenn

PS Yes Rick, spent 14 years in VA. Now back home.

Glenn,

Can't wait to see that TBM! Make sure to stop by the 'Top Gun' tent and have a beer with the Long Island WIX contingent after your flight.
