Sorry you missed it Chad. It came in about 5:30 last night and left about 11:00 this morning. The guys in the picture from left to right are Ed Newberg, a duster from Minnesota and possibly the nicest man on the planet, center is Mike Burke and Ron Fernuik on the right. It's going to Hudson flight ltd in Pampa Tx.
