I have enjoyed reading the mail over the last few months. Here is my first
attempt at a "contribution".

I learned to fly in 1967. Pvt S.E.L. 1000+ hrs , 800 in taildraggers.

I currently own a 1946 Taylorcraft BC-12D which I have had since 1973 and
which I rebuilt in my spare time between 1979 and 1981. I am considering 
selling or trading because I'd like a Cessna 170A or B.

I also own a half share of a modified 1940 Fleet 16B with a 220 hp 
Continental W-670. This airplane is officially known as "Flaglor Hi-Tow"
and was modified by Ken Flaglor in 1957. Ken's most recent project was
the GeeBee model Y replica.

One of my "thrills" was landing the Biplane at J.F.K. in N.Y. for a show.
We parked right next to the Concord.

I am a member of AAA and AOPA and past president of the Antique Airplane 
Club of Greater N.Y.

I love to fly and am very disturbed about ARSA. We have many restrictions
on us here because of the FAA's policy of sanitizing the airspace for the
airlines.....Enough of that.

Thanks for a nice,informative dialog
