Well, how about that! My old airplane, a Grumman AA-5A Cheetah, N9900U is still around (at least as of 2006) at Reid-Hillview airport in San Jose. It still has the paint job I had done (at Kracon in Lincoln, CA) ... the design was done by Steve White, my ex-brother-in-law, who used to live in South Pasadena. Dang, that was a nice plane! Of all the things I gave up when I became a responsible father, selling that baby was the hardest. Motorcycles, scuba diving, skiing ... no problem, but I miss the flying.
