I spent a couple days at Bob's place back in 2001, knocking out my A&P writtens and practical. Great guy, he had a cute girl working desk and P&W is the cat's name - the man loves his radial engines, what can you say.
Great guy, really enjoyed my time with him. He's a big picture guy. He has a DC-3 in WWII colors, he and I have worked many of the same airshows since and he remembers my face and name each time.
I'll be interested to read your gouge on his flight checks, but if they're anything like the ground checks, I think you'll be really happy with him.
