This book conveys the stories of more than a dozen pilots who have devoted a great portion of their lives to the preservation of aircraft that have been in their families for decades. This collection of stories highlights each familyÕs participation in flying, maintaining, and restoring these airplanesÑin many cases, as they passed from one generation to the next. These airplanes range from antique to experimental and some of them were even designed and built by family members, including Skeeter, The Girlfriend, The Yellow Rat, and Sweet Patootie. The author spent many hours on the flight line with virtually all of these pilots, and discovered that they are not only safeguarding and perpetuating our aviation historyÑtheyÕre having fun while doing so! Foreword by Norm Goyer, Pilot, Editor, and Author.
