Jimmy Franklin Airshow - Heart Memorial Fund
You're right, John. Back in '74, when Jimmy was just beginning his
career, I scratched from the last of 2 performances he was due to
perform at the first Dayton International Air Show.
During his first performance, he included several ground-up maneuvers
in his act even though he wasn't certified for ground-up maneuvers.
When I told him he was scratched, he got real ****ed off at me and left
the show. Knew then the guy wasn't going to be around long.
