I talked to Doug Farfel a couple of weeks ago, completely out of the blue, whan I called Jim Duerock to see what he was up to. They were sitting in the shade under the Air Race bleachers at Reno, waiting for fires, with the S61. I first met Doug in Trenton, NJ, when we went to pick up a couple of ex-Trump S61N's and ferry them back to Provo, UT and thence up to Alaska as Loggers.
Sadly, I attended Skip's funeral a few years ago, at his home in Hamilton, Montana. It was very moving and brought out a large number of people from the helicopter logging business.
I met some great people working there and still deal with a lot of them on a regular basis.
