Gentlemen-
The 184th (RAC) Birddog is now safely ensconced in it's hangar at Twelve Oaks Air Estates in Hernando, Fl (5FL7). A CAVU flight from Brasstown, NC -400NM - 1 fuel stop. My kind of weather! The birddog made the trip with nary a hiccup! She's in better shape than ever. Just added air/oil separators (new style) to both the crankcase side and the vacuum pump side. Oil consumption down to nil!
I have just moved here. The lack of good flying weather and the mountains in the area where I was living was getting to me! Mountain flying sucks!
Please note that my e-mail address has changed. It's now:
queenofjacks@embarqmail.com .
I'll certainly try to get to the next re-union!
Cheers,
Charles Race (aka: NONSTOP 1)

I went over for my first tour with the 9th ID and flew backseat with the 184th from Nov66-Nov67.
LOT'S of interesting mission's to say the least but missed TET 68.
Second tour was up north in II Corps where I again flew backseat with the 203d RAC (Hawkeyes).
Glad I stumpled across your web page and I'll be back to look around again.
