Dave Leonard flew out from California in his Cessna 140.
Took him three days :-) this was taken at the U of W cafeteria.
All you can eat for $9. Next year we will just meet here at 7 PM.
If you need a ride show up at Tracy's plane at 5 PM.
I forgot the names of the two people sitting at the end of the table.
Sorry!

Hi Paul,
As the guy behind the camera who received a lift back to Osh from the fine
gentleman and his lovely wife, I can fill in the blanks. His name IIRC is Arlen
(Dean) Van Winkle and he has an extensive background at Cessna having been involved
in the design of several aircraft including the 206, 402, 340 and others. He also
worked at McDonnell Douglas and in the Army surveillance aircraft program. At age
70, Dean and his new bride who were celebrating their first anniversary look
forward to completing their RV-9 equipped with a rotary; expect to see it in a
couple of years. Talk about enthusiasm; you simply won't meet two nicer people. I
bet he succeeds.
