Just the name:
Lt Col Dan Spurlock. USMC

Aircraft was a sprayer that was being restored at VNY. I think he was at Tustin at the time on Jolly Greens, then got sent off to the Puzzle Palace. This would have been about '92.

I remember at the time he was talking about a *reverse* Blue Angels paint job on it & USMC instead of Navy just to mess with people. I think he was only half joking .... :lol:

I'll check my SRA memberlist when I get home in a week. If he's still around there's a good chance he's a member.
