It was a large pleasure to meet you this weekend. Please come back and visit again. Also it was a real joy to see you handle the Eberle Triplane.

Thanks Stephen, we had a great time, and it was good to meet you and the rest of the gang there, a really good group of people. Hard to think about going back to work today....

Did you get any shots of the Dr.I/D.VIII formation?

Andy says that they will post them on the video clips section of the Lafayette Foundation website. I asked Mark how the D.VIII flew and he said that it was great except in a bank. The wing blocks any up ward view. I remember you and I talked about the Triplaner having to be "flown at all times." Mark commented that the D.VIII was not that intense.
