How long have you been in the current industry?
26 years
How did you become interested in aircraft?
I think I was born with it. I was five years old and given a book to choose the wallpaper for my room. I was in awe of only one choice. The result was a sky blue room filled with clouds and Air Force fighters flying in all directions.
What is your favorite aircraft?
The Lockheed P-38 Lightning and the A-10
ATTENTION PAST WINNERS!
Where do you display your airplane? Send us a picture of you and the model airplane you won for having the correct answer to the Name that Plane contest and you may be featured in a future issue. E-mail your high resolution photo to: Matthew Grasson at mgrasson@gie.net.
*Contestants may not win the first place prize more than once throughout the duration of the contest, and may only win consolation prizes once per calendar year. Due to the unpredictable nature of postal delivery, prizes will be determined by random drawing from all correct answers received, after a three week waiting period from the issue’s mailing date. The first drawing will name the 1st place winner, followed by four consecutive drawings for consolation prizes. Please send comments or feedback regarding the contest to Matt Grasson, mgrasson@gie.net
