Dave,

Geeze, I just noticed your sig line...

Someone was just asking me on Monday if I knew of a guy in the Jax area with a T-6. He was possibly referring to you!

Can't remember why he was asking though

Well there's three I know of.

One is a SNJ-5 owned by a friend Shawn Knickerbocker who I've known for many years as we grew up on the same street and I take care of his SNJ now.

The other two airplanes; one is my Dad's SNJ-5 pictured above which is now mine in exchange for working for free for my Father for many years while supporting myself elsewhere around Miami International doing aircraft maintenance. The third is my T-6G of which I need parts for and a set of repairable wings.


I have done a lot or rebuilding and restoration over the years quietly including a lot of landing accident repair. I'm finally getting back to work after building my hangar by hand and getting laid off from my primary income as I continued climbing the pilot ladder. Got on at UAL and was promptly laid off a year later.

I built a 5000 square foot hangar by myself (for Dad to retire in) just northwest of Jax Intl and continuing repair and restoration work there and fly for the charter jet operator. Two weeks for the charter company and then two weeks in the hangar.

Dave Robinson, my Father, died.
