            By the title of your message, I thought you were going to say that it's the start of air racing "silly season", where rumors start running rampant.

                  Please give my regards to Porterville. I grew up there and my interest in flying got started there by one of my high school teachers that was a pilot and flight instructor.

                  I was there at the airport when the following happened.



                  My history on the aircraft in question in vague. But I believe that at the time of the accident, it was a very rare bird to see in the air.

                  The Moonlight Fly-in was always fun, it was great to meet so many people.

                        Two years before the O-47 accendent there was a plane that started up and back fired and started a grass fire out there they got all the other planes except a Monney Might that was destroyed and they had to waite for the fire department to come form the town. Shawn

                            I'm looking at the picture of Super Snoopy on the wall of my office. Any guesses on a lap mph for Super Snoopy at Reno? That would have been cool to see if it had happened.
