So often we take for grantedthe dedication of the general aviationmechanic who maintains our aircraft.Through the history of world oviotionmony nomes hove come to the fore.Greot deeds of the past in our memory williost.os they're joined by more ond more.When mon first storted his loborin his quest 10 conquer the sky.he wos designer. mechonic ond pilotond he buill 0 mochine thot would lIy.PHOTO COURTESY OF AlA FORCE HISTORICAl RESEARCH AGENCY WEBSITEBut somehow the order got twisted.ond then in the publics eyethe only mon thot could be seenwos the mon who knew how to fly.The pilot wos everyones hero;he wos brove. he wos bold, he wos grond,os he stood by his boffered old biplonewith his goggles ond helmet in hondoTo be sure. these pilots 011 eomed it.to fly you hove to hove guts.And they blozed their nomes in the holl of lomeon wings with boling wire struts.But lor eoch of these flying heroesthere were thousonds of liffle renown.ond these were the men who worked on the plonesbut kept their feet on the ground.We oil know the nome of Undberghond we've reod of his flighl to fome.But think, if you con, of his mointenonce moo.Con you remember his nome?And think of our wortime heroes,Gabreski.

If this airspace restriction is made permanent,it may well represent the beginning of restrictions around metropolitanareas such as New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and others.ASS along with AOPA will be making our position heardthat these restrictions are not needed to ensure our safety fromterrorism. As Mike suggests in his article, please take the timeto read the NPRM and then write a letter to the FAA before thedeadline of November 2, 2005.ABS October 2005 www.bonanza.org Page 9248
