Doug left Camarillo  at noon in his C150 with severe head winds.
He is going to try to make it to Blyth tonight (with fuel stops) and
then in to Casa Grandi tomorrow morning. It is a white straight tail
Cessna 150 with a blue stripe.


Paul, Doug, and all:

My apologies for not being at Copperstate.  I'll miss you all, but my
priorities are currently here in Prescott.  I've been too busy to even let
you all know that I lost my son, Warren, in a tragic aircraft accident
October 18.  He died doing what he loved, photographing a MIG-21 air-to-air.
He was 3 days short of his 39th birthday.

The preliminary report has just been posted by the NTSB: www.ntsb.gov
accident #LAX07FA012.

My wife and I are slowly healing.  God bless all of you.

Tom Parkes


Real sorry to hear that Tom. My sincerest condolence's to all
of your family. I am sure you were very proud of him.

Paul Lamar

No apology needed.

May God bless you and comfort you in this time of sorrow. My prayers
are with you and your son.
