Wow, in the total scheme of things, how many planes are hit by lightning? If
you are that leary of flying and lightning, I would suggest you stay on the
ground.

I hate to say this about my close friend John. But, he does stay on
the ground. He hasn't flown in the 8 years I've known him. I wish he
would build another high performance airplane and get us butt up
again. He's a great guy and a hero in my eyes for many reasons. I
just wish he flew more. I know he dreams about it or he wouldn't be
here.

John, get your ass back into the sky buddy. Time is running out. We
are growing old at an exponential rate. Take advantage of the next 10
years because 10 years from now you might not be able to get a medical
or some other sinister thing like that.

I think we here in RAH all ought to have a lynch-mob mentality and get
Amp Meter up in the air again. Let's pick on him collectively!

In fact, John, if you want to come down here, I'll get you on the
insurance of the RV-6 I used to own and you can fly the **** out of
it. I know you are building a house now and don't have time. But in
a year or so when that's done, you are welcome to fly anything I have
access to just so I can get you back up.

Now do it or be square!
