I guess a good percentage of those who read thread on WIX aren't directly involved with warbirds.

So the time and effort you put into letting us come thru the hanger door with you has been a real insight.

To see the effort and attention to detail required.
The sheer hard work needed.
The technical and mechanical knowledge.

You can do all of this AND then write about it too.

Where ever the journey of life is taking you next .....

Bon Voyage and very best wishes Gary !

I know Gary will be deeply moved by all your kind words and encouragement. Please keep them coming.

I also want to get the word out that the void that this has created, will need to be filled. I know for myself, following in Gary's footsteps is no easy task but I will do the best I can do and be judged accordingly. Someone needs to again, follow in his footsteps and do the best job they can. Please, if you have an interest in this, give Gary a call.

We are going to miss you Gary!

Thanks

Dave
