It has taken me a while to come to grips Shultzie is gone. Merry Christmas Shultzie and I hope you took your Stunt Hangar Jacket with you to the ultimate flying circle to let them know we are here.
I will need another moderator for this section if anyone wants the job and knows a thing or two for the good ole days drop me a PM.
You probably never met him in person, but as kooky as he seemed was exactly as kooky as he was. He was 100% bona-fide Real Deal nutso. A lot of people didn't get it or didn't appreciate it, but I sure did. I only met him once but he was exactly as you would expect and it was great. We lost something when he died.THank you Brett, he was as you say,, Kooky,, Eccentric, but a treasure trove of all sorts of info,, and very supportive on an individual basis,,
As a personal aside, he greatly encouraged me in my photography, more-or-less going out of his way to say so. I had a fair bit of conversation with him in private, and he was my #1 fan and coming from a very accomplished professional artist, it really meant something to me.

Don could be goofy at times and was a genuine character, but a nicer guy you will never meet. He was always willing to help and we had many a long discussion on not just model planes, though there was a lot of that, but on all kinds of topics. I remember sitting in a coffee shop in Gig Harbor and talking about the nature of judging, psychology and perception. He was a bright guy and I miss him tremendously.I wish that I had that oppurtunity Randy I am glad you did,,
