Hey Drew,
Where do you fly into at McKellar? My brother-in-law has a
beautiful cottage on a nice little lake (about 1/2 mile long by 1/4
wide) located in the northeast quadrant of the main intersection of
"town". I don't think it's part of Manitowabing Lake (sp??), but I'm
not sure. It's the property immediately south of the Community
Centre or whatever, and the laneway to the cottage is just over a
stones throw from the general store. Bob and Kathy Olsen. Very nice
people.
And if you want a nice shorter trip this coming Saturday and Sunday,
the 75th Anniversary of Windsor Airport (Walker Airport) is taking
place. Big doin's. Huge hangar dance with Swing Bands (1940's era
music) on Saturday night but tickets are going very fast at $55 per
head. Be a really nice air and ground display on Sunday, of which I'm
sure they would love to have you show off your plane. And a "staged"
air-race with Stearmans and Chipmunks, Harvards, etc. Lot's to see
and do. Contact for everything is
Lt.Col Ron Holden (RCAF ret), at 1-519-737-1196,
or the
Canadian Historical Aircraft Assoc. at 1-519-966-9742,
or anybody at the
Windsor Flying Club 1-519-969-1320.
You could get to see the two Rebels under construction too!!! One's
nearly ready to fly. With any luck, Curt will come over from Pontiac
too, and you can se his "plumbing".
Take care.
Brian Lawson,
Bothwell, Ontario.
ps...Love to see your Rebel!! On Sunday I'll be "working" one of the
EAA hot dog booths, so if you come please ask for me and stop by so I
can say Hello. Love to see your Rebel.

homein penatang harbour to visit a freind on his sailboat. Sun. on my way
eastfrom McKellar, Parry sound area where our cottage is I landed at the
guyside of Bone island after trying to take some aerial pictures of buddys
boat at it's mooring. Next time I'm just going to land and pick up the
wantedand let him take his own damn pictures. It's not safe to try and take
pictures while flying a plane IMHO. Took off from there later than I
leastto and flew right over your strip at about 7:00PM and made it back to
Centralia just before the end of twilight :)
