Just a quick note on something you might have missed on Oliver North's WAR STORIES program Sunday night...............................The subject was fighter pilots.

When Ollie asked Duke Cunningham (F-4 Phantom Ace in the Vietnam War and currently member of Congress) how he got interested in flying, Duke said "when I was young, we had these remote control airplanes. My dad helped me build them."

Interesting where we find the guys who can put the hurt on the enemy when the chips go down.............TD

Neil Armstrong flew D Speed, too. I have a photo copy of him at the Plymouth Internats banquet in '49. You can spot Carl Goldberg and other luminaries in the shot, too.

Honkin' McCoy .60, or maybe a Dooling. It is in the Armstrong museum at Wapakoneta, Ohio.
