Rusty Brown - a truly interesting fellow.
I met him (and Sugar Baby) at VSC in the late nineties.
He also showed up at the Brodak Fly-In a few times and we really spent some good times together.
He's the one who got me interested in the (Britt) John Coasby designs, in particularly, the Icarus and Taurus designs.
I found him to be just a bit opinionated with a good sense of humor.
At one point, Dan Banjock and I were chatting with him about his newly acquired Fox 35. All the goodies - balanced crank, stuffer backplate, hemi head, special piston and liner, the works.
The obvious question came up: So, how's it run? His reply? "Darn near as good as a stock one".
Definitely a fine gentleman.
