From Mark;
All these years, I knew that this aircraft had returned to Air Canada and I
knew it had been used in a commemorative flight, but never dreamed it had
it's own website, or that it was flying so regularly. I was a young boy who
was befriended by Bud Clark, the aircraft's previous owner. He would take me
and my friend flying with him, whenever he flew the 10A. In fact, my very
first flight was in this aircraft at the Sun and Fun Fly-Inn at Lakeland
Florida, my home town and where this aircraft was kept before Bud took it to
Brooksville, FL. Both my friend and I joined the Air Force and my friend is
now an airline pilot himself. My Air Force duties kept me on the ground, but
we were both aviation nuts partly due to our association with this aircraft.
Attached are a couple of pictures of the aircraft taken in the very early
80s. Feel free to post them if you like. If you have any photos from that
first! trip after it was purchased, I'd love to have a few. Thanks.
