Hey! I recognize that aircraft!

Sadly enough, the 2-22 kit the scouts were working on turned out to be
too difficult for them to complete. They abandoned the project and the
kit was put into storage. One of the scouts grew up and bought the kit
and attempted to finish it, but again it was too difficult.

Finally, my original instructor, Joe Perrucci, bought the kit and
finished it. It was the 4th glider he had built from a kit. I have
several flights logged in my first logbook in that glider, N222CK.


Thanks for the info. May I append your message to the story, as a coda?
And is Matt McKrell the name I should use?
