Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

Shaw was at the ?2008? AH Con, and told another story - he was in the back seat of HT's RV, and had the airplane during a maneuver. The bird was nose down, and HT kept saying, "Getting time here, pull 'er up....pull 'er up....FINE! My plane!" Dale takes control and pulls out of dive just fine.

Turns out that the cotter pin had pulled out of the rear stick socket, and the shaft of the stick was hanging free after Shaw started the maneuver. He didn't say anything because he kept figuring, "Not a problem, I'll just slip it back in...Ok, I'll get it this time...I'll get it THIS time...."

 :lol

Was great to hear some flight stories from him...and I now have an autographed copy of Fighter Combat, addressed to Simaril!
