Ludwig,

It arrived at 1230. I decided to open the envelope but not take the book out of the cellophane.

Because I was going flying!

Ran through this year's std sequence a couple of times played with some flicks and then did a 3 turn accelerated spin from 3 thou before heading home.

Landed. Opened the book and only put it down after reading about his " Second Close Call in the Pitts".

Hair standing on end - yep! Do I think that this book should be compulsory reading for Pitts pilots? Yep.

The funny thing is that I know all about the Beggs-Muller/ Muller-Beggs recovery and have read Muller's book but didn't know that Gene had written one! Thanks for his e-addy. Would love to pop in and see him/fly with him next month when I go look at the aeroplane we discussed the other day.

See you soon
