Knew a old Connie Captain from TWA and in retirement at the age of 79 he would do a arobatic shows and one of his stunts was to do a inverted ribbon cut about 15 to 20 feet of the deck in his Decathlon.
Great guy, great pilot and great friend.
Held the poles for him at a show and he insisted on getting my autograph on his show program so he would remember how help in his shows.
Hard to find the likes of that type of pilot anymore.
He was also instrumental in getting my son hired at TWA along with my father his grandfather who retired in 1983.
