Mr. Lincoln moved on to the next great airmass in the sky well before I

He was an icon in Arizona soaring for quite some time. Hopefully some
of the more senior rASArs can fill us in here.

His daughter Judy was instructing at Estrella when I attended a camp
there in the late 70s.She's petite, and when she needed to rotate a
2-33 she had to put both hands on the nose handle, lift herself off
the ground, and wait a few seconds while the machine ponderously
tipped over onto the skid. Jim Foreman, watching this, once commented
"My SHADOW weighs more than she does!"
