Yes, the photo gives you away. It was nice meeting you. Your son is going to be a real expert on aircraft recognition. Seems like a nice young man.

actually I didn't even need the name tag, as many recognized me by my picture. I gotta update the picture though,


Jeff,

I think it's a good idea for you to change that high school yearbook picture you've got on the forum! Look at mine,... don't I look my age?

Looks great to me. Heck, I dressed up like that just to fly my R/C models at Dayton.

Dale,

What Jeff is not telling you is that he purchased a father and son combo on that outfit!!

Seriously Jeff, he's a great kid and he looks too cool in that coat and helmet!

Great outfit for the little man Jeff!

But say, I think Sears was around in 1918, but I hadn't realized they were making components for the DVII.
