Default Red Barons to fly no more...

Schwan's Corp. (parent company of Red Baron pizza) announced today
that the Red Barons are permanently grounded. After 28 years of
sponsorship they are redirecting their marketing efforts away from air
shows.

We spent two days following those guys around when we were weathered
in coming back from Oshkosh. Nice guys. One of them lives near our
property in NC.

It's their own loss. The only reason I ever bought Red Baron pizzas
was because of the squadron. I'll go back to another brand now.
