It has been said that flying is the second most favorite thing a man can do, and I agree.  Of course, the number one favorite for pilots is landing.

Although  no longer active, I fell in love with flying when I met my next door neighbor many years ago, Joe Kittinger.  Little did I know at the time that he was a multiple world record holder, highly decorated war hero, and a record setting space aviator, holding the record for the high altitude parachute jump (from 102,800 feet.

My thanks can never be expressed enough to Joe and Sherry, both Kathy and I really miss all the excitement we had being members of the “Red Neck Squadron” and Balloon Team.  Even more meaningful was to be their friend.
