Title: BOB EMMETT DAY!!!
Post by: Shultzie on November 01, 2006, 12:45:26 PM
                    I would like to proclaim this day as:
                                  BOB EMMETT DAY!!!!

He is an ICON who has been a mentor for a huge amount of stunt-grunts from all over the country.
 Please feel free to post anything about our beloved brotha' n' Balsa.

Attached is a beautiful B&W photo by Gary Letsinger of Bob holding one of the most beautiful Howard Ike's that flew as great as it looked.

I've known Bob a long time. Ruthless as a coach, helpful as a friend and always available to contribute. And not a bad stunt judge either.

I never saw that much of a smile from Bob before he retired.  He's had a pretty constant grin since retiring.
