Troops,
It was hoped that Bushi Cheng would be able to join us this year for our CJ-6's 50th Anniversary at AirVenture in Oshkosh. He has not been well lately and he regrettably declined to come.
In his stead we have asked N.C. "Bud" Evans. Bud and I belong to the VAC here in Florida. Each month Bud writes a short article of events during his career. They are so interesting and at times spellbinding, I really look forward to them. Bud flew P-80s when fighters were still listed as "pursuits". He became a test pilot at Edwards and was there during the 'nifty fifties' when the early mach birds were testing their wings. He's flight tested a single engine Cessna 337 as a possible counter insurgency gun-ship. He has been a speaker a number of times to the Society of Experimental Test Pilots. I know he's got a bunch of very good stories to tell and will make an interesting speaker.
So he will be our guest speaker at our RedStar Banquet, at the Reeve Memorial Union at the UW in the evening of August 1, 2008. He, along with the other great things being planned for that evening, is something you do not want to miss.
