  • Ridge Runner SOLD?

    Say it isn't so!

    Someone with legit intel tell us what's going on.

    What's the word Smee?

    I know you're in the know.

    If Dan did sell her,she enjoyed a good time with him at the stick.

    I for one was privilaged enough to score a ride a few years back.

    It is right up there on the 10 best in a lifetime list.

    It's true. At our EAA meeting tonight I was told it was going to be at OSH, don't know if it will be there or not. It's MN based now.

      I wonder if Mr. Martin kept the race motor and prop?

          WHAT DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND ABOUT DAGO BEING PURSHASED SOME TIME AGO AND ALREADY IN THE HANDS OF A NEW OWNER??????????

          IT WAS WRITTEN UP HERE SOME TIME AGO.

            first off, turn off the capitals, i don't need to be yelled at.

            I know all about the sale of dago.

            I fully expect Mr. Martin to get involved with another aircraft, the mention of dago was mostly to get a little s>>t stirred up before Reno.

            frankly, I find the tone of your post uncharacteristic of you.

              Sorry, didn't realize Caplock hit. I may be a NAG, but didn't mean to yell.
              Let's talk about the exciting news that Precious Metal is coming back. It was certainly thrilling to see her fly in to Stead during PRS. There is so much excitement over what Sunday's Gold might look like, considering what happened at Reno last year. Now that IS some s%^& to be stirred!!!
              PRS had the biggest ever Rookie School - lots of stuff to speculate about.
              See you in a few weeks, and I will apologize again. Or better yet, see me at the NAG Shack Wed through Sun and I'll give you a cookie.

                That thought had gone through my mind.

                    I always bring home-made cookies. Many years ago a NAG lady named Medge would renew NAG memberships in the Pits. She always served cookies. When she passed away a few years ago, I was able to get her recipe; I have made them ever since. Come by the NAG Shack and say hi.

                          I really do miss Medge & hubby Cliff McDonald being at the air races A-LOT & think of them often. I was 'totally-hooked' on Medge's oatmeal-raisin-chocolate chip cookies (like many other NAG-sters & ramp rats). They were two of the nicest & most-fun folks to be around & took care of me & alot of my pals during race weeks like loving grandparents, when we were still young kids at heart (so were they too). Cliff's van parked in the pits next to the ramp served as a 'mini oasis' in the hot desert sun during arrival days (& ramp news center), while Medge ran the NAG trailer w/other member volunteers.

                          Thanks dear Betty Bear, f/keeping that wonderful air race tradition alive & goin' strong still during race week...

                          P.S. - Please save me a cookie this year, OK?

                            So there it is. Oatmeal cookies at the NAG shack. Can't wait.

                              Hadn't Dan owned RRIII forever?
                              I thought it was back to the 1970s somewhere? 1975?

                              Wow.

                              I hope it was a rediculous pile of cash for Dan and his family.
                              2 great flights in RRIII with Danny making my F-ing eyes POP!
