Clyde Queen

[Guest]

Clyde Queen ex-PRO racer turns 81 years young today Feb 29. I talked with him over the phone today. He is doing great.

He has built 4 or 5 large radio contol planes. These planes are in the range of 12 to 13 foot wing spand. He has 3 or 4 people flying these things for him.

Some good news for a change, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLYDE!! My good old friend.

With a birthday only every four years wouldn't that make him somewhere around 20. Happy Birthday Clyde.

Bruce didn't that ride scare the crap out of Clyde?

Earl Granrath

Just being on the water in FH was enough to scare the crap out of you. His pereferal vision was not all that good, and he had sort of a wild and crazy driving style to go with it, and you always gave Earl room.

Never forget seeing that big old car of his showing up with the FH on top and the engine in the trunk and think, Oh Boy, fun at the ole ball park today.
