Did I mention his humbleness as another one of his finer character traits ? Come on Robert, Legends aren't only people from the past....Have a Great Day!!

Here are a few pictures I will look for more later. Sense 04 I have built 13 full size stunt planes for myself and a few for others. 3 Profiles. Currently working on Viper 8.

Please edit these posts as you see fit.

If you need more I will have to wait till after the 1st of the year. They are on my laptop at work.


I started flying in 65 when my uncle came to live with us. He had built a beautiful Thunder Bird. I was in Awe of those planes.He taught me the stunt pattern. I still remember the day they landed on the Moon 1969 because my dad and I were on the back patio starting a Voodoo. I flew at Whitter Narrows in Cal with Tom Warden and Bill Noyes.  The best times I can remember was flying at the local school yard. Kids would come from blocks around to see what was happening. It helped my Dad owned a hobby shop cause I had the airplane disease bad!

I sanded at high school between classes. I made prop extensions in metal shop. I just could not get enough of it. I ended up joining the Navy and was stationed at Millington Naval Airbase. I had a 100 mph Ringmaster I flew between the Hobby shop and barracks.When I was deployed to VF 211 I flew at Mirimar Naval Airbase. After the Navy I moved to the Palm Springs area and kept flying. Then moved to Eugene OR. where I was a Eugene Prop Spinner.

After Moving to Saint Louis I Got involved with Ron O'tool and Gary Hajek. I took some time off and after a 12 year hiatus and I have got the bug back. I don't go with the main stream of things as of you have already gathered but I keep on keeping on.

Honest estimate of Airplanes built in my life? Well As close as I could remember it's in the 100's (full size stunt planes) and the same amount of profiles and 1/2 A's.
