Growing up I lived by Richards-Gebaur Air Force Base and watched the F-102A Delta Daggers take-off and land, it was a great looking plane and sounded awesome as they spun up before take-off. So when I finished my first Jet (Dream Chaser) I decided to play with a delta wing to see what I could come up with.

Sorry I didn't see your posts before. Yes I grew up in Belton but joined the Air Force in 66 for 8 years then we moved back to Belton for two years then moved to Texas so I haven't lived in Missouri for a long time.

So did I !

Way back in my early IBM career Richards-Gebaur air base was one of my clients|service areas. I used to enjoy walking through the hangars and checking out the A10s ; one of my favorite stomping grounds.

That's just really amazing. It's a small world, huh! Now none of us are still in the Kansas City area, yet by chance, we find this common past through the Internet and RealFlight. Life is wonderful.
