Are the proceeds going towards the B-29 and B-24? How much will they cost?

The B-24/B-29 squadron is handling the distribution and the proceeds go to the squadron.

I did the artwork, based on the RAI (RetroAviation Inc) logo I did for Gary for his hot rod truck project.

Awesome Django!

What fonts did you use for the "In Memory of Gary Austin"?

Very nice. I ended up trying to reproduce the RA logo you did on illustrator myself, but never got it quite right. :(

Just curious if there is a movement to educate people on the seriousness of mental illness such as depression? I never met Gary but it seems that remembering him is awesome, but I think we could do even more by focusing on education and acceptance that it is ok to ask/accept help. RIP Gary

I'll need some.

Gary's name came up today when the MO and I were wondering about a source for custom aircraft exhaust stacks.
One of those, "darn, I bet Gary would know." moments...

To cast such a shadow.

There is in Australia - http://www.beyondblue.org.au/index.aspx? - so I guess there must be something similar in the US?
