KiloTango1200 Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 Ran across this photo recently. Back in the early 80's, my friend that got me started in aviation had his own 1960 Cessna 172. We were both 18 and did stupid shit in the airplane like other 18 year old's did in cars. I'm still alive but Billy died in a crash about 20 years ago. No fault of his, it was an engine failure on downwind leg, at an airport surrounded by tall pine trees. If you are in this business long enough, you will loose some friends. I took this photo of Billy's dad in his Midget Mustang while we were flying formation. 4 Quote Link to comment
