1. I did!

[RebelOne]

2. Yep, and I met him once in Miami in the '70s.

I worked for a city magazine and he came into our office for an interview.

3. Sure did.

And the Cisco Kid and Roy Rogers. Saturday mornings were for cartoons and the afternoons for westerns.

5. Oh, yeah

I was a certifiable airplane nut ("plane crazy," my mom called it) by the time I was 5, and the Cessna 310 was my first favorite plane.

Yowza. Penny was her name wasn't it?

[Oeditpus Rex]

8. Yup

Personally, I think she was worth a bit more. :evilgrin:

11. Ha ha....I used to love to watch Sky King!

I have a friend who has been a pilot for a long time. Right after he graduated college he went to work for Kirby Grant at a boys ranch of some kind down in Texas I believe.
