And what to my wondering eyes did appear? The ubiquitous Dan-San Abbott talking about WW I air combat!

Any other national TV appearances I should watch for Dan-San?

* *Two years ago, maybe three, I was one of the principals in a video made by the BBC in Hong Kong about Kai-Tak International Airport. It was titled "WINGS OVER HONG KONG". *My part was telling my Father's story about his founding of the Kowloon City Airport, He leased 60 acres from the Kai-Tak Land Developement Co. *In 1927, when the RAF moved in, *it was renamed after the land owners, Kai-Tak Airport. I solved that part of the Harry Abbott story, I am still trying to complete his China story with the Chinese goverment in China and Taiwan.
