I finally made it home today. It was a great show and fun time.
Thank you to everyone for the posts. It's just truly an honor to have such a great airplane. I dedicate this whole program to my dad. He is my real inspiration. Many thanks to all that helped in the huge project of restoring this wonderful Skymaster: Larry Bowdish Craig Griswold Bill McFadden Danny King Jerry DeSantis Doug Wyn My Wife and kids and all you who helped in many ways through this site. Now let's see, Arlington Airshow and then Copperstate. Ok, look out more to come. Nice pics Scotty

Glad you made it home safely Herb. I hope that when the Chicago Center controller asked if you were on board by name, did not cause you any undue concerns. It was just a "funny" sequence of events.
I was looking at the photos of your plane that Scotty had posted just a few hours before I went to work today. Then shortly after I sat down at the radar scope, I heard the controller next to me who was working the airspace over the PMM VOR respond to "Skymaster N712JF." After I heard that, I was thinking, why does that call sign sound so familiar? I could not recall if that was your call sign or not so I asked Mark (the controller working you) to ask you if that was in fact you. I figured you would not recognize my name as we have never met but thought possibly it would ring a bell if he mentioned this website. Anyway, congrats on your awards and maybe one of these days I will make it over to 08C with my plane and we could meet. Take care.... Ed Asmus |

Ed
That was really cool when the center controller asked me that. It caught me by surprise at first and then I figured out that he said "Ed Amus" and I knew who it was. Thanks for chiming in. Would love to meet somewhere, I will be at PWK on Wednesday but have to go to some meetings so that may not work. Maybe on a weekend we can get together for breakfast.

Sounds good Herb. I occasionally get a weekend off. Working a rotating schedule has me working all sorts of weird hours. Are you usually hanging out at Riverview on the weekends? I'm based at Aurora (ARR) so we are not too far away.

Want some REAL competition?
Herb,
Seems like there is no real competition for your wonderful bird - in the USA! $180,000 of upgrading later, it would have been interesing to see how my plane would have fared. Unfortunately I just don't have the time to enter into these competitions. Congratulations!
