CANUCKBIRDSTRIKE

My uncle Walter ran tests out on Long Island with the radar that accompanied the Nike Missile system that studied it's effects on migratory birds. It sounds like you guys should talk sometime.

We used to operate a flock of CV 340/440's out of BWI and STL hauling the Wall Street Journal and I remember sending out two or three leading edges every year to STL because of your compatriot geese. We were running RDR 1b's and an AVQ 10 or two back then. I know that the new stuff probably doesn't do anything but I figure it's like chicken soup, I shouldn't hurt?

The book you did is great. I shall tell my mates about it.
