That's where I solod as well. 1990 was to long ago. These nice fall days make me wish I had stuck with the Hartzell props.

wanttobe is my rating.

yep that was him. He taught alot of people around Jtown. He moved to Arkansas. His brother still instructs at Hawkins I think. Mike was a great instructor. I had about 25 hours and opened a business and got married, so that $100 hobby (1990 money) had to go. I never picked it back up.

Now he wishes his hobby was only $100!!
