Please help me find someone
« on: July 08, 2025, 07:00:25 PM »
A while back, I had a conversation with a gentleman on this site but I cannot recall his name.

Possible Wes or Les, last name Eaton or Eakin.

Anyone know him?

Thanks for any information.

  Yep, most likely Wes Eakin. He's from eastern Kentucky I believe. I am pretty sure he's in Muncie at the NATS right now, as I thought I saw his name on the circle seeding charts that were posted.

Wes is a Kentucky Colonel and thus should be treated with respect.

Indeed.

    When you see Wes, tell him I said "HI". I haven't talked to him since last year's NATS and I hope he's doing well.

Gentlemen - Thanks for all the help.
I was able to connect with Wes to convey the needed information.

I was born and raised in Western Kentucky.  At one time, a long time ago, being appointed a Kentucky Colonel was somewhat of an honor, today, not so much.  That is certainly nothing against Wes, the award itself has just lost its meaning over the years as a lot of things have.  My father was made a Kentucky Colonel when I was about 15 years old.

Howard has a bent sense of humor. I’m sure he was just joking around. 🤪

Don’t take anything Howard says seriously unless he is talking about aerodynamics. 🤣
