I have to admit I have not been a member continuously (military, life, kids, etc.) but my first EA fly in was Rockford, IL. 1962 or 63 with my dad. My member # is 25,582. I thought that was way big back in 64 or 65 when I joined at 16. Now the proud owner of a state of the art, Smith Mini Plane just to prove I am an old duffer.
