STRA GHT Be LEVEL

Every fall a number of folks will pipe up and complain about the cool air They know whats coming but dont like the idea of fall turning to winter Since there isnt a lot one can do about weather I tell them it happens every year just like each week has a Monday

Thinking of Monday reminds me of a lesson in life I learned one day a few years ago when I had a business cleaning and painting water tanks Every Monday morning like clockshywork a fellow who worked for me would walk into my office and ask that I lend him $50 to use while he was out of town for the week This went on for a while This guy was a pretty good employee but this peshyculiar quirk in his finances finally got the better of me and I had to ask him about it

The next Monday right on schedshyule he walked in After he asked for his usual $50 loan I quizzed him Since you just got paid on Friday what did you do with all that money that would cause you to be broke by Monday morning

Well lowed you fifty dollars and then I gambled some of it away drank some of it up in booze spent some on girlfriends and I guess I just threw the rest of it away was his reply

Not want ing to be judgmental (after all he did repay me first) I gave him the $50 and sent him on his way Obviously he enjoyed his weekends in his own way and at that point in his life thats what he wanted to do To differing extents thats what we all want to enjoy our lives and do what we want to do

Me too Like so many of you I want to spend some time at the airshyport where I can fly a bit talk to my

BY ESPIE BUTCH JOYCE PRESIDENT VINTAGE ASSOCIATION

Enjoying life

buddies fly out and find a $100 hot dog and enjoy frittering away the rest of the time At the end of a long week everyone needs some reward time Having an understanding wife who also enjoys the same company you do is helpful my thanks to Norma for being so supportive and understanding of my love of aviation

Shortly before you read this we will have inducted John M Miller

aviations certainly been good to John

hes given back to it many

times over into the Vintage Aircraft Association Hall of Fame Johns career in aviashytion spans most of the last century and while aviations certainly been good to John hes given back to it many times over in both his writings and h is activities Im sure that you like me have really enjoyed Johns arshyticles weve published over the past year and those of you who are Amershyican Bonanza Society members have been fortunate to read of Johns aviashytion experiences for many years Hes a real gem and well continue to pubshylish his stories of today and yesterday here in Vintage Airplane

The fall is a great time to have a fly-in A number of our VAA Chapters have their annual event in the cool air One of those fly-ins is VAA Chapshyter 10s get-together at Tulsa Oklahoma It was reported that on Saturday the fly-in had more than 300 aircraft attend the event Weve

got coverage of the Tulsa fly-in startshying on page 10 VAA Chapter 3 has a weekend fly-in at Darlington South Carolina and that fly-in had more than 180 aircraft on Saturday Octoshyber 5 A number of type clubs also hold their fly-in conventions in the fall including the Beech Party at Tulshylahoma Tennessee and the Midwest Stinson Reunion in Watertown Wisshyconsin Were thankful that theyve been safe pleasurable events

Its great to attend one of these loshycal fly-ins to look at the great airplanes your fellow members have restored It is also great to see the friends that you have met over the years Whats more enjoyable than to just sit under a wing and visit for a while For those friends you may only see once or twice a year its a rewarding time

We are in the midst of a recruitshyment campaign via mail Weve sent invitations to EAA members who are not yet members of our association but who own aircraft that fall within our judging categories Weve also sent membership invitations to those who own airplanes built prior to 1967 and who are not yet EAAVAA members The early reshysponse rate is encouraging but we can always use your help Ask a friend to become a Vintage Airplane Association member and have fun with us Lets all pull in the same dishyrection for the good of aviation

Remember we are better together Join us and have it all

EAA FAA ADDRESS VINTAGE AIRCRAFT ISSUES A high-level EAA-FAA task force is working to further identify and remshy

edy issues unique to vintage aircraft such as the unavailability of maintenance data and approved parts When maintaining type-certifishycated aircraft owners are required by FAA regulations to use approved data (generally the manufacturers original engineering data) acceptable data that can be approved and approved parts

For many older aircraft the parts are not available requiring their fabrishycation or substitution but the data required to do this is often unavailable Therefore owners are forced to choose between not doing the work and completing the repairmodification without approved data

EAA Washington Office Director Doug Macnair has given FAA Flight Standards Director Jim Ballough a range of options to remedy this dilemma They include examining Transport Canadas Owner Mainteshynance Category regulations developing a repairman certificate for vintage aircraft or devising alternative data requirements specifically inshytended for older recreational aircraft

The FAA has original engineering data but it cannot release it without the permission of the type certificate holder and certificate holders often will not authorize its release because they deem it proprietary informashytion or want to avoid incurring further liability With vintage aircraft the FAA often cannot locate certificate holders

Over the years EAA type clubs and the FAA Aircraft Certification Sershyvice have tried to develop legal means to release this proprietary data They have achieved limited success but the process is time consuming and the outcome unpredictable EAAs call for new airworthiness regulashytions is designed to provide relief for vintage aircraft owners and it anticipates work on these issues can begin before the end of the year

PAUL POBEREZNY TO RECEIVE NAA WRIGHT

MEMORIAL AWARD Experimental Aircraft Associshy

ation Founder and Chairman Paul Poberezny will receive one of the National Aeronautic Assoshyciations (NAA) most prestigious awards-the Wright Brothers Memorial Trophy-at the anshy

nual NAA Wright Memorial Dinner in Washington DC on December 13

Poberezny founded the association in 1953 with a handful of fellow pilots and enthusiasts EAA has since become the worlds premier organization for fostering interest in the design construction maintenance and use of experimental-homebuilt and sport aircraft

NAA President Donald Koranda called Pobereznys seshylection in flights centennial year especially fitting The Wright brothers were the very first builders of a successshyful homebuilt airplane and the sense of pride joy and accomplishment they must have felt as their aircraft took flight is a feeling particularly well known to EAA members Koranda said Pauls selection for this award is even more fitting when you consider that EAA is celeshybrating 50 years of service to the homebuilt and sport aviation communities much of it the direct result of Pauls early vision leadership conviction and passion for aviation

The award is presented annually to a living individual for significant public service of enduring value to aviashytion in the United States Some of its past reCipients include Neil A Armstrong (2001) Igor 1 Sikorsky (1967) and Charles A Lindbergh (1949)

VINTAGE AIRPLANE 3

f -By 1923 18-year-old Johnny Miller assisted a barnstorming pilot who later gave Miller his first airplane a decrepit Curshytiss Jenny destined for the scrap heap He rebuilt the Jenny and learned to fly it often referring to World War I pilot Horashytio Barbers book Aerobatics After soloing on his 18th birthday he sold the Jenny and headed off to college at the Pratt Institute for Mechanical Engineering graduating in June 1927 The month before hed skipped school one morning to watch Charles Lindbergh take off from Roosevelt Field on his way to Paris via the North Atlantic

With new regulations coming into effect in 1928 pilots 0( and mechanics were being certificated by the Department

of Commerce Johnny took the mechanics exam and was issued Aircraft and Engine Certificate No 2906 Working as a mechanic for the Gates Flying Service he also rebuilt and flew a variety of aircraft including this J-1 Standard which still exists

3 1932 Miller also flew the New Standard D-25 barnstormshying it successfully and profitably This one is serial number 2 D-25 converted from a D-24 by replacing the Hispano engine with a 225-hp Wright J-5

h In 1930 he was commissioned as a transport pilot in the ~ Marine Corps Reserve and he qualified as Naval Aviator

No 4821

5 In 1931 he was the first person to buy the revolutionary Pitcairn autogiro the PCA-2 With it he became the first to fly a rotary-wing aircraft across the United States from May 14 through May 28 1931

6 He was actively involved in autogiro flight including the test flying of the first wingless autogiro the Kellett KD-1B and the Armys YG-1B shown here with Miller on January 201938

7 HiS deep involvement in rotary-wing flight continued during the 1930s including the first true aerobatic demonstrashytions flown during the 1933 National Air Races John s interest culminated in 1939 when he convinced Eastern Airlines (EAL) management to take over operation of the scheduled airmail flights originating from the roof of the Philadelphia Post Office Ten times each day a trip was flown by John or his backup pilot John Lukens

more than 30 years He owns and flies the Beechcraft Bonanza shown here is still fully qualified as a flight instructor and maintains his IFR currency He continues to make annual trips to California to visit his grandchildren and great-grandchildren

John Miller Recalls

Testing

the J2F-6 Amphibian

Wh en the United States got into World War II I was already a captain for Eastern Air Lines

based at La Guardia Field in New York City the main air terminal at that time I was flying DC-3s the airplane used by major airlines all over the world the biggest and best airplane of its day Even toshyday more than six-and-a-half decades after its birth it is an exshycellent airplane far older than its present-day pilots I am proud to have been a part of its history with close to a million miles (about 5000 hours) flown in it

My flying schedule was two days on and two off During the war with men actually fighting I was not willing to loaf on those two days which totaled 150 per year So in my basement I made small parts on my lathe for an airplane factory nearby the Columbia Airshycraft Corp of Valley Stream Long Island It was getting ready to produce Grumman-designed amshyphibians The Navy needed them urgently for airsea rescue

One day when I was talking to the manager of the factory about producing the parts he said Forshyget the parts We need you more than the parts We can finish

JOHN M MILLER

them here We want you to be our test pilot We are just about ready for the test of the first plane Come to the fieldI So in spite of EALs regulation against any outshyside professional flying I accepted the offer If EAL objected I just didn t care EAL needed me and the factory needed me too I could work alternately two days for each company It was difficult then to find pilots with engineershying training who were qualified for such test flying I loved to test fly it was my recreation between rough long night airline flights EAL learned about it but never obshyjected It was wartime

The amphibians were the Grumshyman J2F-6 a modification of the earlier Grumman J2F-5 by installashytion of a much more powerful engine from 700 hp to 1050 hp The heavier and more powerful enshygine made it necessary to run engineering tests on the plane in the air as well as static tests on the ground and especially in the washyter This was a job cut out for me

The plane was a single-bay bishyplane with fabric-covered wings a central water hull blended into an overhead land plane fuselage and wingtip floats The engine with tractor propeller was over the front

part of the water hull The two cockpits were in tandem with a sliding canopy It was a modificashytion of a former Grumman land plane with retractable landing gear folding into the sides of the fuseshylage The well-known Grover Loening who had been the engishyneer for the Wright brothers on their famous Model B was the originator of that unique configushyration By coincidence I had become acquainted with him beshyfore WWII when he was developing his similar OL-8 amshyphibians built for the military with inverted Liberty 420-hp enshygines and double-bay wings from the British-designed WWI DH-4

My test flying included stability tests stalls spins and dives They were all necessary because of the change in weight center of gravshyity and the extra power and speed The most hazardous were the water tests Any change in the center of gravity (both fore and aft and vertically) the extra thrust etc could Change airwater flying characteristics noticeably and dangerously

The water tests reqUired by the Navy included landing and taking off three times in 3-foot waves That may not seem like much but

VINTAGE AIRPLANE 7

those huge trans-Atlantic four-enshygine flying boats were limited to only 1-12 foot waves The little single-engine amphibian was more scared of those high waves (the highest of the year) than I was The tests were held on a winter day with the temperature only about 15degF and the water temperature down close to 28degF The seawater of Long Island Sound was partly frozen over a unique sight indeed The Navy provided two fast rescue boats to rescue me in case I foundered It was really wild hitting those waves in landings and takeoffs The water spray was so heavy when the hull plunged through them that I saw green water coming out of the cowlshying behind the air-cooled engine The seawater instantly froze all over the hull tail and the lower wings making it impossible to take off again after each landing in the washyter I had to taxi up on the ramp at the Navy base at Floyd Bennett Field to have the ice washed off beshyfore the next takeoff The g forces on the hull were very severe but examination afterward showed no damage or washboarding of the bottom The J2F was a tough flying boat Each time I taxied in I thought about the next hop which might easily be my last A Navy SOC seashyplane foundered between two of my flights and the pilot was dead from the cold water by the time the rescue boats pulled him out Navy inspectors have some kind of optishycal instruments to measure the height of the waves and an inspecshytor told me that one of the waves was 4 feet when I hit it in landing and several were more than 3 feet

The Navy inspector did not choose to go with me on those flights However he went with me on the milder tests of each amshyphibian When testing the hulls for leaks he got down in the hull to look for leaks and mark them On such flights we would se lect freshwater which sometimes was hard to find in the wintertime due to freezing

S NOVEMBER 2002

If at all possible we avoided saltwater because afterward we had to decontaminate the whole airshyplane to prevent later corrosion of the aluminum On such winter tests for each airplane I would usushyally go up the Hudson River to Newburgh where the sa ltwater ended and the freshwater began I would try to find an area with an iceberg-clear area between the ice and the saltwater One day I found that area covered by scattered chunks of ice and picked an area clear enough for the test The landshying speed of the airplane was more than 60 mph

the takeoff was far from immediate

I had to charge through the field

of floating icebergs with

whatever zigzags I could coax out of the airplane

After alighting the inspector started yelling frantically to get off the water because a tremendous fountain of water was drenching him even though his seat was 10 feet above the bottom of the hull In the front seat unaware of the water I quickly took his advice and opened the throttle to take off imshymediately However the takeoff was far from immediate I had to charge through the field of floating iceshybergs with whatever zigzags I could coax out of the airplane

The airplane was getting so heavy from water in the hull that the takeshyoff run was more than 2 miles and extended southward into the salty area before I could coax the sodden

airplane off the water I could only surmise that we must have hit some floating object that had torn a large hole in the aluminum hull

I assumed that the water would pour out after I finally got back in the air I had great difficulty flying the overloaded plane which now had a shifting center of gravity I tried to climb a little The water did not drain out and I staggered all the way back to our factory field the Valley Stream Long Island airshyport On nosing down to land I had difficulty keeping the airplane from diving when the water shifted forshyward but I managed a safe landing

Two full drums of water some 700 or more pounds were drained from the hull We discovered that someone had failed to install a large rubber seal in the V-shaped circular camera hatch in the bottom of the hull The high-pressure impact of the water on the bottom caused a very high rate of flow inward but the weight of the water once in the air kept the hatch closed tightly A lot of water must have leaked out but I still had a very heavy unbalshyanced overload We suspected that the failure to install the seal might have been sabotage for we had a few cases before and after that incishydent Some people approved of what Hitler was doing

On another flight I had an unshyusual adventure Each plane had to be flown to 16000 feet altitude and the two-speed gear drives of the superchargers had to be tested by shifting three times On one tlight the supercharger gears failed and I had to make a power-off landshying Another test at that altitude was up through a solid overcast from about 1000 feet to 10000 feet At 16000 I had to test the fuel flow from each tank for about 3-4 minutes each When I shifted to one of the tanks the engine quit cold Shifting to other tanks and pumping the wobble pump frantishycally still left me in silence I was faced with making a dead-engine instrument approach to NAS (naval

air station) Floyd Bennett Field with a ceiling of about 1000 and visibilshyity of 12 mile in fog

The amphibian glided at a very steep angle so I had to make the two procedure turns necessary on that very unusual approach proceshydure with a very rapid loss of altitude I made the second turn out over the ocean and reached the airshyport before getting back to the loop-type low fr~quency A-N radio range station If I overshot or undershyshot the field I should have water I broke out and could barely see what appeared to be a runway I heard the tower call for all aircraft on the taxishyway to pull off into the grass quickly so I realized that the operator saw me approaching the taxiway frantishycally cranking the manual landing gear down I was rather busy He alshyready knew that I was making the unusual deadstick approach I landed on the taxiway and was towed in to the Navy hangar It was found that the tank was filled with water (more sabotage) The enorshymous and complicated carburetor system had to be disassembled and cleaned plus the tank and fuel lines The airplane was in the shop a week

One beautifuC warm autumn afshyternoon the inspector and I flew to Candlewood Lake in western Conshynecticut for a hull leak test The lakes 50-mile shoreline was lined with summer cottages and docks At this late time of the year the kids were in schooe so the cottages were closed for the winter The water was mirror smooth without a breath of breeze We set down on the water right in the middle of the lake and decided to shut the engine down and take a swim The battery for starting the engine was not much larger than a motorcycle battery and was guaranteed for only one start of the big engine We stripped and dived overboard The water was still warm and we were swimming and treading water while talking and enjoying ourselves The sun was getting ready to set The air was calm and the water glassy Howshy

ever as the heat of the sun diminshyished and the water and ground stayed warm convection currents began

I felt a sudden strong breeze on the back of my wet hair Ripples started on the water and I turned to look at the plane It was floating rapidly away from us pointing forshyward with the wind I quickly struck out swimming to catch it telling Ted the inspector to stay put and I would come back to get him I can swim but I was not an athlete I swam as fast as I could with every bit of strength I had but I thought I would never catch the plane which was gaining speed

I really thought it was going to be my end by drowning Finally I reached the rudder and grabbed it with my wet fingers only just manshyaging to hold on while I waited for my heart to slow down After a long wait my heart slowed about halfway I decided to start swimming alongshyside the hull faster than the plane was moving through the water to get about halfway forward where there was an open door about 24 inches above the waterline

It took another tremendous efshyfort to get forward to the door and I was afraid that I would not have strength enough left to reach up and grab the sill I knew that if I missed it there was nothing else to which I could hold to catch my breath again and get my heart slowed down enough to lift myself up into the open door I made one desperate lunge and caught my finshygers on the sill and hung on there for two or three minutes before I had the strength to barely lift myshyself up through the door There were no handholds

When I got inside I realized that the sun had set long ago it was dusk and I had to get the engine started and taxi back to find Ted Alexander in the dim light I climbed up into the cockpit still bare and wet

I had to get that engine started I primed it carefully and turned the

switch It started instantly I taxied fully a mile out on the lake in the deepening dusk looking for Ted s head in the water He was older than I and I was worried about whether he would have been able to stay afloat By good luck I spotshyted his head and taxied alongside of him He was able to reach up and hang on to the doorSill but he was too weak to lift himself up onto it With the engine idling I climbed down to the door and helped him inside He said that he could not have stayed afloat longer He got his clothes on while I took off still bare in a hurry because it was getting dark and the factory crew would send up an alarm for us When I got enough altitude I called the factory control tower Afshyter landing I got my clothes on much to the amusement of the ground crew We had adventurous explaining to do If I had not caught the airplane I almost cershytainly would have drowned out in the middle of the lake as would have Ted The airplane would have gone on until it ran ashore with our clothes inside

I had other adventures while testing those amphibians and also a newer larger and much more modern amphibian the XJL The J2Fs were a very important unshyarmed airplane during the war I have talked to marine sailors and flight crewmembers who had been rescued by them mostly out in the Pacific and they just worshipped the J2F after they were pulled up into that same little door The hull had four folding litters on the inshyside walls and some of the men rescued were so exhausted that they needed the litters In some cases so many men were crowded into the plane that it could not take off and had to taxi to a ship to unload Im glad that I had a small part in their production After my experience I had ordinary screen door handles installed at those doors From my perspective they were a major improvement

My NOT-So-ExCELLENT ADVENTURE

It was a spectacular Friday mornshying and I was enjoying one of my customary early morning flights My favorite flying time is early in the day when the air is cool and still and I have the skies to myself I generally try to get into the air by 645 am fly for an hour to an hour and a half and get back in time to get showered and go to work This was one of those perfect flying days-visibility as far as the eye can see temperatures in the low to mid 60s no wind nobody else in the air just absolutely perfect

My Swift is (more or less) what one would call a Super Swift-the engine is an 10-360 with 121 hours on it with most systems new or overhauled including the electrical and hydraulics sticks a new canopy nice panel and new inteshyrior Its just waiting for paint but thats another story

My usual flying routine is to do some air work then go to an airshyport 40 or 50 miles away do a few landings and then return home Im based at Sky Acres Airport in Millbrook New York and had flown up to Columbia County Airshyport (lBl) in Hudson New York which has a nice long wide runshyway (5350 by 100) Perfect for

I had just completed my third landing at IBI and was taking off to do one more before returning I was climbing out with full power and the landing gear was not reshytracted (to save on wear and tear when doing the touch-and-goes) I was not sure exactly how high I had gotten somewhere between 400 and 800 feet AGL when I sudshydenly heard and felt two successive loud bangs followed by the aircraft shaking and the smell of something burning I immediately and instincshytively banked hard to the left as I pulled back a bit on the power That decreased the shaking and I exeshycuted about a 220- to 240-degree turn back to the airport Besides making it back to the airport before I ran out of altitude my main conshycern was that I smelled something burning and needed to get back on the ground and out of the aircraft as quickly as possible

It seemed at the time that I still had some power so I wanted to conshyserve what I had and not feed any potential fire more than necessary I completed the turn to the left and was now coming up on a (more or less) 45-degree approach to the downwind runway so I banked

hard to the right to line up I reshymember worrying whether I could complete the turn and level the wings before the right wingtip conshytacted the runway Once I completed the turn I lined up and then exeshycuted a pretty decent landing and coasted off on the first turn-off to the right that I came to with a few hundred feet of runway to spare I think that I used flaps once I was lined up but I couldnt swear to it All I do know was that once I was on the ground I shut off the fuel ignishytion and master as quickly as possible and probably set a record for getting out of the plane Next thing I knew I was standing on the taxiway next to it watching it dripshyping oil and waiting for the flames which thankfully never came

After taking a few deep breaths I began walking the half-mile to the office and after a few minutes along came a white van that pulled up next to me It was the FBO manshyager who first asked if I was okay and then complimented me on my flying and safe return He told me that he had been watching me doshying my touch-and-goes heard the bangs and then watched as I was coming back He drove me to the FBO where he arranged for a couple of guys to help tow the airplane

back to a tiedown It was interestshying to watch them try to figure out how to hook a tug to a Swift with a tail wheel I had them wrap a webbed strap around the tail We towed it to a tiedown dripping oil all the way After first calling my mechanic I removed the cowling to see what had broken The cylinshyder head on the middle cylinder on the left-hand (pilots) side had comshypletely separated from the barrel but the piston and barrel were inshytact and it appeared that no metal that had gotten into the engine

My mechanic flew up looked at it and flew me back to my home airport Later that day I came back in my Cessna with some tie-down ropes chocks and sun shields and I tied down and locked up the Swift for the weekend We ordered a cylinder and the following Tuesshyday we went back at the crack of dawn to change the cylinder Once we got it apart we learned that the intake manifold had also been sheared completely off at the flange so Im not sure just how much power the engine was really producing after the cylinder failed And the injectors were still sendshying fuel into the separated head while the spark plugs were sparkshying away so my fears of a fire were not unfounded

By the way I have since heard from others that although losing a cylinder head is rare it happens from time to time Ive heard that there is an AD (airworthiness dishyrective) out on other Continental engines to pressurize the cylinders and use a soap bubble test to check for leaks and cracks I certainly never expected a failure of this nashyture as I had only 121 hours on the engine And I am fastidious when it comes to avoiding shock cooling and trying to operate the engine properly

Back to the point(s) of sharing this story I am firmly convinced that my glider training this past spring was key in saving my butt My return to the airport is exactly

the maneuver that one is trained to perform after a towrope break when flying a glider And it was good that I fly the airplane a lot and am familiar with its characteristics Had I not kept up my speed in the patshytern and set up properly for the landing well lets not speculate Especially when you consider that the Swift glides pretty much like a brick and has no sta ll warning (1946 technology) If you get too slow with a Swift it can develop a high sink rate that could be difficult or impossible to overcome during the flare And let me tell you from exshyperience it is very counterintuitive to keep the nose down to keep your speed up after an engine problem with the ground fast approaching

Weve all read numerous articles in various flying magazines about whether you should try to return to the airport after an engine failshyure on climb-out I can honestly say that I didnt have time to weigh the merits of whether to return or look for an alternative All I can say is that my decision to return worked for me

In reflecting upon my experishyence a number of thoughts have come up

1 Luck had a lot to do with it Since I was doing touch-and-goes my takeoff roll began about a third of the way down the runway so there was less chance of my overshyshooting the runway when I returned for a downwind landing Had I begun my takeoff from the beginning of the runway my downwind return would not have given me as much runway to work with Either my turns would had to have been much steeper or I would have had to turn 360 deshygrees to get lined up To make a downwind landing I only needed to execute a 22S-degree turn folshylowed by a 4S-degree turn for a total of 270 degrees I would have needed more altitude to complete a full 360-degree turn to line up in the same direction as my takeoff

2 After flying for nine years and

850 hours without ever experiencshying something like this I have to admit that I did not devote a great deal of attention to anticipating problems and I had not given a lot of thought to the possible off-airport landing sites You can bet that I will be paying much more attention to potential landing sites around any airport Im at whenever I fly in the future Unfortunately it can happen to you and you never can tell when you might need to act quickly

3 Dont rule out any optionsshythe option that you fail to consider may be the one that could have saved you I had it in my mind to get back to the runway Howshyever it might have been a better idea to have landed on the taxiway that was closer than the runway Especially with less altitude Or I could have landed in the tie-down area which was plenty wide enough and closer yet than either the taxiway or runway So make the best use of all possible options and dont get conditioned to overshylook possible places to put the plane down If its flat and youre not going to kill anyone or hit anything big and immovable think about using it

Lastly I cannot emphasize the importance of training training and more training Had I not been comfortable in the airplane and been able to fly it pretty much on instinct I would probably not be here to tell the story In hindsight I can see how it would have been really easy to get too slow in the pattern and we wont even think about the possible results of that

So it was a very exciting Friday I hope that I do not have that kind of excitement again any time soon Nor do I wish it on anybody else This time with a lot of luck and the right training I got away withshyout a scratch on the plane or me Im not complaining Then again there is that $3000 repair bill

What the Heck Does 150 Mean And why its important for aircraft owners

Weve all seen it Sometimes on seat belts sometimes on emergency locator

transmitters (ELTs) sometimes on strobe lights But what does TSO mean

A Technical Standard Order (TSO) is

a minimum performance standard isshy

sued by the Administrator for specified materials parts processes and applishy

ances used on civil aircraft FAR 21601 (b)(l) Subpart 0 of FAR

21 covers Technical Standard Order authorshy

izations You can get full information at

httpav-infofaagov tso HistryI hist96htm and httpavmiddotinfofaagov tsoTsoque Questhtm In this article we will give you an overshy

view of what the TSO means to the airshyplane owner

Throughout the 1930s and 1940s the United States experienced a rapid growth

in the aviation industry There were 30000 airplanes in operation in 1946 and more than 100000 planes were

forecast to be in operation by 1950 This rapid expansion placed an extenshy

sive burden on the Civil Aeronautics Administrations (CAA) ability to perform the

needed inspections As a result expensive delays and high costs were often experishy

enced in the industry In response to these problems in 1946 the CAA proposed the

certification of qualified aircraft manufacturshyers who would meet the CAA published criteria for manufacturing certain items that

could be installed on airplanes The CAA would continue to certificate

airplanes engines and propellers but it would no longer certificate smaller indishy

vidual parts The soundness of all other components including instruments would now be ensured by the manufacshyturers guarantee that these parts met the performance requirements estabshylished by the appropriate TSOs The institution of TSOs eliminated the need to hire many additional inspectors and

it further expanded the decentralization of authority at the CAA

Three separate and distinct types of TSOs were insti t uted in the 1940s and early 1950s They were C-TSOs N-TSOs

1 2 NOVEMBER 2002

Doc MOSHER

and G-TSOs C-TSOs set technical stanshy

dards for aircraft components N-TSOs set guidelines for runway construction and G-TSOs are for the purpose of issushy

ing guidance for ground operations Civil Air Regulation (CAR) Amendment

04a-l adopted November 18 1947

and effective January 1 1948 formally established the C- series of TSOs as folshylows Cu rrently effective Civi I Ai r

Regulations require approval of certain specified appliances by type certification

Such certification entails submission of detai led data for each appliance or variashy

tion thereof which data must be examined and approved by the Adminisshytrator of Civil Aeronautics The purpose

of this amendment is to simplify and exshypedite approval by permitting in lieu of

type certification the establishment and publication of specifications by the Adshy

minister for such appliances The amendment also says An applishy

ance for which a Technical Standard Order has been established shall be deemed apshyproved by the Administrator when the

manufacturer certifies that the appliance meets the specifications included therein

(FR7898 November 25 1947) CAR Amendment 04a-l cont inues by saying

The TSO system of approval may be used by the Administrator for items such as mashyterials parts and processes as well as

those appliances which now do not require type certification

Simply stated the FAA drafts performshy

ance standards for some appliance (for example a shoulder harness) and any manufacturer who can meet these stanshydards can then be authorized by the FAA to produce such an appliance Of course the FAA makes sure the standards are maintained Any appliance manufacturer that meets and maintains these stanshydards can stamp its product TSO

Today proposed TSOs are drafted for

public comment especially by organizashytions like RTC A and SAE There has been an explosion of technology and the introduction of new equipment in airshy

craft and th is has presented workload problems for the FAAs TSO program

What does all this mean to the aircraft owner The TSO stamp on any appliance certifies that the appliance meets the enshy

gineering and manufacturing specifications of the FAA and relieves the individual airshy

craft owner of that task The TSO stamp on each batch of Dacron fabric intended

for use in covering a certificated aircraft shows that the particular batch of fabric

meets the standards for that particular part number of the manufacturer (In this

example there are different grades of Dacron under different brand names so be sure the correct grade is used)

Sometimes you may see the stamp

TSO-PMA This means technical standard order-parts manufacturer approval Not only does the part meet the published

TSO standards but also the PMA ensures that the manufacturer has parts manufacshy

turer approval from the FAA Your AampP mechanic can install that particular mateshyrial or item being assured that it complied

with airworthiness standards when it left

the manufacturer If you own a certificated airplane (Cub

Champ Luscombe Cessna etc ) you canshy

not install new automobile seat belts unless you want to certificate them yourself If you use TSO-marked seat belts that certificashytion and FAA approval has already been

completed for you If you install an item that is approved under a supplemental type cershytificate (STC ) the STC will cover the airworthiness standards

For most of us the TSO stamp is enough to let us know the FAA has apshyproved the item for installation Installation of course is another story

Jim Thomas of Anchorage Alaska and Groveland California

plan was to visit friends and spend some time at my remote cabin While relaxing on the deck of my cabin I decided I really wanted to fly to Oshkosh After all its only 3300 miles from Anchorage to Oshkosh

When asked what he does for a living he said Im between careers and enjoying my airplane

From anyone else that would mean he was out of work and lookshying for a job That however is not Jim Thomas situation He s lived through one interesting career and is now flying his Super Cruiser around the country while he figures

14 NOVEMBER 2002

out what he wants to be when or if he grows up

His first career was a long long way from the Alaska bush and in no way indicated hed wind up a conshyfirmed Alaska devotee

I was born and raised in the San Francisco area and went to college at Cal Poly he said I graduated with a degree in aero engineering and went right to work for Boeing in Everett Washington on the 747 proj ect I worked in the structures group doing design on the wing to body fairing landing gear cabin doors and fuseshylage structure It was a good job and I liked what I was doing

One day a designer who worked for me brought in some photos of Alaska and told me they were hiring people to work on the construction of the Alyeska Pipeline being conshystructed from Prudhoe Bay to Valdez The designer said he was in contact with a company that was hiring enshygineers to work on the project

They were actually looking for civil engineers but I really wanted to go to Alaska and figured Id send my resume in but I didnt give my aero engineering degree much of a chance at landing a job As it turned out

they had to retrain everyone they hired to become arctic engineers beshycause the work involved building a hot oil pipeline in permafrost

To my surprise I got a job offer that tripled my Boeing salary That was impossible to turn down espeshycially since it would put me in what had always been described to me as a paradise for outdoorsmen

What Jim hadnt thought about too much was the timing of the job move The offer came at the end of 1974 and he reported for work in January of 75 January isnt necesshysarily the most opportune time to move that far north

When I stepped off the plane in Fairbanks it was 65 degrees below zero and it stayed there for two weeks he grinned as he rememshybered After training in Fairbanks I was sent to the Atigun construction camp in the Brooks Range where it was 70 below It was so cold they wouldnt let us go outside to work I was beginning to understand the reashysons between the salary difference between Boeing and my new job

He stayed with the pipeline job just long enough to get infected by the Alaska bug

I was young and wanted an adshyventure so after about a year and a half I quit and started on a series of trips The first one was a 2S0-mile kayak trip on southeast Alaska that took me from Wrangell all the way out to the Gulf of Alaska and the town of Sitka Then I hiked the Chilcoot Trail took a train to Whitehorse and then hitchhiked to Dawson City and the Klondike gold fields

Basically I had made a lot of money in a hurry and wanted to enshyjoy Alaska

Since most Alaskans see airplanes as essential as pickup trucks he was subjected to more than his share of flying machines Thats where his pipeline time began to work for him

I had been fascinated with airshyplanes since I was a kid because my dad was a naval aviator and flew SBDs and SB2Cs There were all sorts of flight training books around the house which I loved to read We would also go to air shows around the Bay Area whenever we could So when I was working the pipeline and we had nearly 24 hours of dayshylight I began taking flying lessons from a CFI who worked the local Flight Service Station

During my first solo a Learjet happened to call in saying he was 20 miles out and landing I immedishyately got on the radio and reported that I was in the pattern and on my first solo doing three touch-andshygoes To my relief the Lear pilot responded that he would hold out over the river until I had completed my three circuits

Shortly after my solo my CFI was transferred and I was out of an airplane and instructor

The problem of finding a learning situation that was stable long enough for Jim to get his certificate would dog him for a long time

Another guy came to the FSS who was also a CFI and I started to continue my lessons with him but another pilot who had rented his airplane flipped it on its back on a sand bar and I was once again

A pretty comfortshyable cabin starts with a well-cushshyioned seat and a

panel equipped with a reasonable amount of instrushy

ments A portable communications radio and a GPS

are also mounted on each side of

the panel

out of airplanes Finally I went to Buchanan Field

in California looking for a flight school that had both lots of airshyplanes and lots of CFls I thought I had it made but just after I comshypleted my short cross-country the flight school lost their lease and closed up shop This was really getshyting old

By this time he had invested a huge amount of time and effort in search of the elusive pilot certificate so he headed back north

I went to Merrill Field in Anshychorage and started down the row of flying schools asking what I had learned to be the three most imporshytant questions about flight schools How many airplanes did they have How many instructors How long was their lease

By that time my dad and I had

purchased a Super Cub and I needed my license in short order I had plenty of flying time and had most of the requirements but I was havshying a terrible time trying to get that last little bit of instruction so I could take the checkride

His persistence paid off on the third flight school he interviewed They had the requisite multiple of instructors and airplanes had a long-term lease and most imporshytant were willing to help him get his certificate as quickly as possible

When I ask them about a lesson schedule they responded We can fly you today tomorrow Friday and any day you want What I really liked about them is that they didnt take me back to hour one as so many of the other schools had They evaluated me to see where I was at and then we started from there

VINTAGE AI RPLANE 15

Under the back seat theres a handy surprise-a toolbox A great place to keep essential traveling stuff like tiedowns and a quart or two of oil from bopping you on the head during a bout with turbulence

In very short order he was ready for the checkride but once again it looked as if his efforts were about to be foiled-the weather was reshyally lousy

My CFI called the examiner and told him I needed the checkride in the worst sort of way and the examshyiner bless his heart said If hell fly in this stuff he must be okay He came over we did a little flying and he signed me off Then I took a coushyple of hours of tailwheel instruction

16 NOVEMBER 2002

Flip the seat down and the extended baggage compartment turns into a snug sleeping spot

got my endorsement and we went down to pick up my first airplane a Super Cub

Before starting the Super Cruiser project Jim went through a number of airplanes including the Super Cub a Cessna 180 a 180-hp Skyshyhawk and a couple of Citabrias One of the Citabrias a 7ECA bears mentioning because he didnt get it in the usual way

I won it in a raffle being conshyducted by the Libertarian Party in Fairbanks It was $25 a ticket five for a hundred bucks I gave them the hundred bucks and took their

airplane home It doesnt get any sweeter than that

By this time Jim was an old Alaska hand and knew what he wanted in an airplane He also knew he was hooked on tandem seating and flyshying with a stick not a wheel but he still wanted a machine with lots of baggage space and good short-field performance A modified Super Cruiser was high on his list as it is for most Alaskans because of the wider back seat and the ability to graft on lots of parts from Super Cubs to increase performance

Id heard about this PA-12 that had been sitting for 10 years in Fairshybanks so I went up to look at it It had been disassembled after a ground loop but it didnt look too bad I couldnt see any major damshyage although as [ found out later the fuselage was tweaked and needed straightening This was no big deal because I planned on modifying it quite a bit so truing up the fuselage would just be another thing to do

The first owner of the airplane was the Atomic Energy Commisshysion and its logs made it appear as if it had been used for surveillance or radiation monitoring around one of the first nuclear plants in Washington state However one of the major surprises upon seeing the airplane for the first time was the metalized fuselage

Although the airplane was nearly stock in 1954 one of the owners had the fuselage metalized by MetshyCo-Aire in Fullerton California Met-Co-Aire had a number of STCs to metalize a lot of different airshyplanes so this wasnt a one-off project In fact I know of at least three other metalized Super Cruisers in Alaska

The metalizing process wasnt a simple matter of riveting aluminum sheet to the stringers in place of the fabric In fact the aluminum was applied in a unique fashion

Im fairly certain they made the aluminum shells up in a jig off the airplane and then slid them on from the back and finished them I think

it was done that way because the skin and the formers stand off from the tubing and are held in place by Adel clamps Also youd have to have a snake thats good at riveting to buck the rivets at the back of the tail cone Theres just no way you can get at them from the inside I dont care how small you are1

The construction technique which leaves the tubing standshying free from anything around it worked very much in the airplanes favor

Lots of times there is corroshysion in the bottom longerons of rag and tube airplanes because the dust and dirt collects in the little valley formed by the fuseshylage fabric and the tubing This holds mOisture and rots everyshything around it In this airplane theres a good-sized gap around

The Piper Cub mascot gets a new name and a pony the tubing so nothing collects header tank under the instrushy

to ride recalling the black and white film serial Thethere Because of that this

Cisco Kid Hey Cisco Hey Panchotubing was in really good conshydition Much better than you normally find up north1

Jim and his brother Bill worked together on the airplane for three years Their first order of business was to remove the obligatory ton of mouse droppings sand the tubing and doushyble-check it for corrosion While they were doing this several of their pilot friends and aircraft mechanics had their own opinions of what the brothshyers should do to the airplane

We had a number of people say we should remove the aluminum and replace it with fabric to save the weight I found weight and balance records which showed the metalizashytion added just under 20 pounds to the airplanes empty weight and pointed out that since the airplane was metalized the wings had been re-covered three times but the fuseshylage hadnt been touched Besides we liked it because it makes the airshyplane unique Thats one of the reasons we didnt paint it1

Rebuilding a PA-12 in Alaska means something different than it does in the lower 48 Chances are every PA-12 in Alaska that goes

through a rebuild receives a power injection in the form of a 150-hp 0shy320 And so did the Thomas airplane But the search for performshyance and utility didnt stop there

We replaced the horizontal tail surfaces with balanced Super Cub units which included the PA-18 trim system and flying wire carryshythrough The elevator control

system which originally used a bell crank was replaced with the cable units from the Super Cub

Then we installed most of the Cub modifications certificated by F Atlee Dodge and others into the fuselage This included X bracing the top of the fuselage and a bunch of other structural beef ups Our number one goal with the airplane modifications was to make it crashshyworthy We didnt plan on crashing but in Alaska thats always in the back of your mind

At the same time we modified the baggage compartment with the cathedral and knee braces to make a large baggage compartment which could be used for shelter if the weather got bad Im glad we did that because I had to sleep inside the airplane one time when the wind was so strong I couldn t make it through a mountain pass1

One very useful modification is a toolbox under the back seat This provides a good spot to keep tieshydown ropes chocks gust locks tools a quart of oil and other gear

which might otherwise become freeshyfloating objects during turbulence

Jim also likes to point at the relief tube as being one of the more practishycal modifications hes made to the airplane because it has come in handy many times on the long-disshytance treks of which he seems so fond Hes had the Chrome Cub as far north as the Arctic Ocean west

to the Bering Strait as far east as Oshkosh and as far south as the tip of Baja California We all know there is no such thing as a fast Cub so its easy to see why he prizes the relief tube so highly

Cruiser wings are basically the same as the Super Cub so it was no problem to add the PA-18 flaps At the same time we installed F Atlee Dodge 60-gallon tanks and a small

ment panel The header tank is needed so if youre making a circle approach to a landing

and un-port the fuel tanks the enshygine wont quit on you We also put Dodge tie-downs in the wings which I think are one of the best things you can do for any Cub beshycause they eliminate the stress on the wing strut fitting and can also be used as a jacking point for workshying on the landing gear

The engine I installed came out of a Super Cub and the 150 hp reshyally makes the airplane perform A unique mod to the engine compartshyment done some time ago was installing a cowl flap into the botshytom of the cowling It doesnt do much good but at least I can say I have one1

When the Thomas boys were done with their little airplane the list of certificated modifications totaled 52 Still with all of the detail work and effort expended to make the airplane fly better and be more useful folks generally see only one thing-the aluminum skin Well thats probably just the way its going to be After ali theres a good reason its called the Chrome Cub

THE 46TH ANNUAL TULSA REGIONAL FLY-IN

Perhaps the Best Ever A perfect fly-in with perfect weather

CHARLES W HARRIS SENIOR CO-CHAIRMAN

PHOTOS BY RICK BRYANT

The CAF B-17G Sentimental Journey was the centerpiece aircraft at Tulsas 46th annual fly-in Thats Betty Grable starring in the nose art

The 46th Annual Tulsa Regional Fly-In on Frank Phillips Field in Bartlesville Oklahoma on Septemshyber 20 and 21 was a perfect blending of virtually

the entire spectrum of the sport aviation community The weather had to be experienced firsthand to be beshy

lieved A frontal passage during the previous Wednesday evening cleared out the entire Midwest and brought forth crystal clear blue skies low humidity near calm breezes and temps in the high 50s in the mornings to high 70s in the late afternoons The thick green grass was manicured to near perfect appearance and the cloudless sky gave us not only mild sunny days but also a full moon that lit up the night sky to almost daylight brightness Fate had presented us the kind of weather that fly-in fans normally can only dream about

Fly-in planners quite often seek high-profile personalishyties andor aircraft to create attention and thus attract both the flying and lay public to their aviation event The opportunity for a high-profile aircraft miraculously presented itself early in spring 2002 when the possibility of hosting a tour stop of the famous CAF B-17G Sentimenshytal Journey became known We seized on this rare rare opportunity Of the more than 12000 B-17s ever built only 15 remain on flying status in the entire world and it is virtually beyond imagination that one would ever be available for an appearance at a regional fly-in For an exshytended period it was also agreed the big World War II Boeing Flying Fortress would be accompanied by a secshy

ond CAF tour aircraft the WWII German Luftwaffe Heinkel He-l11K medium bomber which is the only flyshying example in the United States However the Heinkel suffered a mechanical problem in August 2002 and was removed from flying status and could not attend

The promise of the two historic WWII bombers gave rise to another important prerequisite of a fly-in-a proper and appropriate theme And so it came to be that the 46th Annual Tulsa Regional would become known as liThe Year of the Warbird It was fast becoming a year of tingle and excitement The excitement was further heightened because the construction of an entirely new runway-length taxiway during the previous year had neshycessitated the cancellation of the 2001 fly-in Everyone was anxious to re-establish the long-running event

With the CAF B-17 coming it was only natural to inshyvite and involve the many local warbird owners in the fly-in in a more prominent way than ever before Dave Wheaton would bring his B-25 Alden Miller would lead a big gaggle of the Riverside-based T-6SNJHarvard group as well as the T-28s and the P-64 The many Stearshymans PT-19s N3Ns et al would also join in it looked for all the world that a fine military-related emphasis was surely forming

All the while April through August the many and varied facets of the fly-in support areas were increasingly enthusiastic Then in mid-summer we got news equal to the B-I7s planned visit Former World Aerobatic Chamshypions Nikolay Timofeev and Elena Klimovich both from Russia would be headlining the Claremore Air Show and would additionally fly to Bartlesville in their Sukhoi 26 and 31 aircraft and appear at the fly-in on both Friday and Saturday mornings AME Guy Baldwin had made these arrangements and would fly lead in his Extra 300 This startling news meant in addition to the great varishyety of traditional show class airplanes we would have not only the fabled and famous B-17 and the other warshybirds but also two former World Aerobatic Champions and their equally famous Sukhoi aircraft-an incredible assembly of headliner aircraft and aerial attractions

The mailers went out to the constituency the ads went to Trade-a-Plane the website had long been up the type club airplanes were coming the forums were scheduled the several hundred volunteers were poised the transportation vans staff and drivers were ready and the exhibitors and vendors were on their mark Sudshy

Bob Penny s one and only 1935 Janet McCollough s Vultee BT-13A was Pasped Skylark restored by Tom presented with the Chairmans Choice Brown was the Tulsa fly-ins Antique Award for her sensational warbird Grand Champion Shes from Grandview Missouri

The Carters of Fayetteville Arkansas were thrilled with the selection of their 1960 Cessna 175 as the Conshy Mark Trimble Branson Missouri brought his fabulous Beech C-45 to the temporary Grand Champion fly-in Phillips Petroleum is an avid sponsor of the fly-in

denly it was Thursday September 19 the B-17 arrived in late afternoon from the St Louis metro area after being weather delayed by the frontal passage

Our first day Friday broke sheer clear cool calm and wonderful The show airplanes came in copious numshybers The warbird contingent from Tulsa arrived in beautiful formation complete with the concert surshyround sound of their big Pratts and flat-pitch Hamilton-Standards it was pure aerial harmony The T-6SNJHarvards made their low passes and then made their breaks and landed and parked Next Dave Wheaton made his arrival and mandatory low pass in his B-2SJ with Jim Goff flying formation shotgun in his NA-SOP-64 After they made their second pass they too landed and were prominently parked on the huge reshyserved warbird ramp

The Russians are coming and so they did Right down 36 they came low fast with smoke on and with their big fat three-paddle blades and their 3S0400-hp geared round engines in a loud roar After their second pass they also landed and came up and onto the big

ramp to shut down in a close order-like drill Bill Hare quickly moved to interview Nikolay Elena and Guy each of whom was a top interview subject

This all seemed almost surreal While its not necesshysarily an extraordinary sight on AeroShell Square at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh it was virtually an unheard of sight sound and experience at any fly-in other than Oshkosh Lakeland or Midland Mark Trimble of the Ozark Air Museum at Branson brought his magnificent highly polished Beechcraft Royal Canadian Air Force Exshypeditor Bill Harrison of Tulsa arrived in his Model 18 C-4S Twin Beech and showplane owner Janet McCulshylough of Grandview Missouri arrived in her glistening best-in-the-Iand gorgeous highly polished 1941 Vultee BT-13A Vibrator We parked Janets jewel-like gem on the emerald green grass just off the north ramp (Thou shalt not covet thou shalt not covet thou shalt not covet)

But warbirds do not necessarily live by pistons alone so Jane and Warford Johnson came to the big show from Misshysouri in their Rolls-Royce powered Yugoslavian Soko Galeb (Gull) straight-wing military jet trainer and it too was

parked on the warbird ramp directly behind the big Fortress And as all of these high-profile military-type aircraft

were on the ramp and continuing to arrive the widely varied non-military showplanes from the antique classic contemporary experimental ultralight biplane and aeroshybatic categories continued to arrive in ever greater numbers Even the factorymodern parking area was steadily filling and with the weather continuing to reshymain absolutely perfect nearly 150 aircraft had landed parked and tied down by the time the refreshment and dinner hour had arrived

Saturday was if possible even bigger and better The warbirds mass arrivals fast low passes and formation landings were more spectacular than on Friday The B-25 and its P-64 formation mate seemed even lower and faster and the Extra and Sukhoi arrival even more spectacular

Further since it was now Saturday the regular showshyplanes were arriving in really big numbers With a B-17 a B-25 a P-64 a C-45 Expeditor two Sukhois an Extra 300 a whole gaggle of T-6SNJHarvards the Soko Galeb jet trainer on the ramp scores and scores of display machines landing and being parked and the 1000 car parking lot filled it was simply an unbelievable day More than 315 airplanes had come to the fly-in

In addition to the fabulous warbirds our traditional mainstay fly-in airplanes were out in great numbers The great classic designs from the last nearly 70 years were with us in grand style and strong numbers For example we had 15 or so J-series Cubs 15 short-wing Piper Pacers Tri-Pacers and Colts 15-20 Luscombes 15 Cessna 120140s 12 Cessna 170s approximately 12 Swifts approximately 10 Cessna 195s approximately eight Stinson 108s approxishymately eight Aeroncas four or five Mooney Mites two rare Porterfields() two Howards a goodly number of V-tailed Bonanzas a bunch of older CI72s and C182s a whole passhysel of the widely popular RV-3s -4s -6s -7s -8s and -9s and lots of miscellaneous experimentals and ultralights inshycluding Tom Gutmann s brand new German-designed Ukraine-built CT Cruiser powered by a 100-hp Rotax 912 engine This amazing carbon-fiber two-place aircraft cruises at 135 mph while lifting more than 600 pounds of payload with a 700-pound empty weight airframe

Individually and collectively the airplanes were simply a beautiful and impressive insight into our history

The physical facilities on Frank Phillips Field at Bartlesville are remarkably positioned for a fly-in The FBO ramp is very large and most adequate to handle the airshycraft traffic matters we can position our PA sound trailer and speaker towers adjacent to the runwaytaxiwayramp areas where all activities can be continuously viewed and reported and the unreserved support and total cooperashytion of the City of Bartlesville Phillips Petroleum Company their FBO Phillips Aviation Services and espeshycially all of the concerned personnel makes the whole event simply a joy with which to be associated

Bill Hares total profeSSionalism and uncanny know1shy

edge of the aviation community both historically and by individual company and specific airplane year make and model takes all of the guesswork out of the otherwise necshyessary memory process And all of this is literally set to music as we play the sweetest music this side of heaven as background for the event when Bill is not on the microshyphone The Biplane Expo in June and the Tulsa Regional in September of each year are striving to be the best that they can be And make no mistake the 46th Annual reached for and caught the brass ring Our Grand Chamshypions could not have been finer our sponsoring organizations and volunteers could not have performed better only in America

It could not have been better scripted beyond what we lived from experience to experience from hour to hour It was an incredible event The 46th Annual Tulsa Regional FlyshyIn was the realization of The Impossible Dream the weather the organization the airplanes the guests the warshybirds the volunteers and the myriad of supporting groups and buffs collectively captured The Impossible Dream It just doesnt get any better than the 46th Annual Stand tall friends you accomplished The Impossible Dream

Wormans Fairchild 22

-shyA favorite of modelers and full-size enthusiasts for years the Fairchild 22s beautiful lines are timeless

22 NOVEMBER 2002

Ive been on a nice trip up and down the West Coast recently and really enjoyed myself as usual I had visited Orcas Island in the San Juan chain in Washington State back in 1996 and aside from visitshying Ernie Ganns place at Friday Island one of the highlights of my visit was seeing Bill Wormans Fairchild 22

Bill has had this project for years starting with a basketcase of parts and painstakingly restorshying it to award-winning status The pictures show how much effort and love this man has put into the project

When I last saw it the Fairchild was flying with a wood prop and Bill was still getting the bugs worked out Now as you can see it has a Hamilton-Standard metal prop installed a starter has been added and it has almost 300 hours on it

Bill and I (hes on the right) talk over the ins and outs of flying and mainshytaining the Menasco D4 a gem of an engine that wasnt produced in large quantities

in 1903 Id be curious to see what comments those of you who are Ford histoshyrians have on the subject

Take a look at the photos taken by Mal Gross and me and like me dream of flying this beautishyful restoration The only reason I didnt get to fly it was we were fogged in all the while I was there

You might also attend one of Bills one-on-one sessions on welding He has become so proficient in welding that he is in big demand as an instructor by some of your homebuilders and restorers on Orcas and the neighboring islands

Over to you

(( ~tJck K

Fairchilds sportsmans parasol monoplane didnt sell in great quantities but its imshyage is indelible

Thats quite a bit of time for an airplane whose owner doesnt have a pilot certificate

In Bills works is another Menasco D4-87 and he is finishing his Model T Boattail Speedster as well as planning for a 1914 Model T Indy-type racer Bill tells me that Henry Ford really never initially intended to build cars for the public His 1914 Racer was so sucshycessful others wanted one and that was supposedly the beginning of the Ford Motor Company Id never heard that one before and since the company started

Like many other restorers airplanes are not Bill Worshymans only passion-antique automobiles like this Ford Model T Boattail Speedster are also benefiting from his craftsmans touch
