WHEN MY FATHER WAS WRITING ABOUT THE GEE BEE HE WAS ALWAYS LOOKING TO WRITE ANOTHER BOOK.
HE WOULD SAVE FILES OF INFORMATION, JUST IN CASE HE DECIDED TO START WRITING AGAIN.
HE ALWAYS HAD A THIRST FOR KNOWLEDGE.
HE LOVED THE ERA OF AVIATION & THEIR INFLUENCES WITH ALL THE WAYS IT CHANGED OUR LIVES.
GRANDFATHER WAS A POLICE OFFICER & A FIREMAN FOR CLEVELAND & WOULD TAKE MY FATHER TO THE AIR SHOWS & RACES.
