I think Les Horvath flew a Janus from Estrella AZ to CO

Which decade? Just kidding, but the name is well known of course.
Problem with some of the club and state web sites is that information

not listed.

The object of this exercise is to bring Colorado's Milton Award up to

banner years, so were eclipsed by epic efforts.

Les flying with this group?
