Refresh my memory. Does Butch have anything to do with the Predator UAVs? 
I ran into a bunch of civilian contractors who were running those things 
when I was in Kosovo. I had a little down time so I walked over to their 
hanger and it was like a government sponsored radio controlled aircraft 
club. Not to say that it wasn't a real professional atmosphere, but they 
really seemed to be enjoying their work. And then, at a different location, 
I got to see the products of the flights. Very impressive stuff. Really 
a great information gathering tool, those UAVs.

No... that was Jeff Spitzer. Jeff remains chief engineer in charge of the
Predator. Jeff was formerly with Moller and converted the OMC air cooled 
single rotor Wankel to a liquid cooled two rotor. The whole crew at
GA Aircraft division are rotor heads from the CEO Linden Blue on down.
