Nostalgia Challenge #1:

1978 Grouse Mountain Invitational Competitors - later a well known Aerobatics Competition.
Read Magazine articles and more at: http://www.westcoastsoaringclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8232

A fun challenge for Forum old timers:
- Put names to all the faces. And... Where are they now?
- Can anyone name the pilots pictured who are still flying in the competition circuit today?

Post #2 will be all the mug shots, with place name identifiers.
Post your list of names cross referenced with each Identifier Code.

Wants to sell it and build #3 in his architectural series…

One name per reply = NOT ALLOWED. Laughing Give it your best shot, or leave it to others less senile to fill in the blank! Embarassed

My problem is that I know all these folks as white haired 65 year olds… Baffled by teenaged pictures of them…

The alignment works best in Google Chrome. Just increase or reduce font till it all fits.
