I have one vivid memory of flying a partially sighted man and as was my usual practice I commented on our height gain at every 250 ft. We reached...

Burt...Thanks for rekindling the memory of Bill Harris. I spent many hours in an 880 cockpit, on the skeet and trap fields and in his always open home as a young bachelor. He was a close friend and a true gentleman. I miss him as I am sure you do along with many others. Jack
