Larry Mauro
I had the distinct priviledge of being present for Larry Mauro's
introduction into EAA's U/L Hall of fame last night. I have known Larry for over 25 years, spent 2 months with him at his home and Riser factory in California in the early 80's, and wish all of you had seen the designs he had on the board back then. Taken back totally by surprise, you should have seen the look on his face when I took him to his table and he noticed the placards with his entire families names on them. He had NO idea that they were going to be present for the ceremony! Representing the U/L were Jim House, Carla Larsch, Leo Parent, and Paula Crevier. He still has his desire to build the simplest, lightest, U/L to date and I wouldn't be shocked to see him do it again. It was good to spend an extraordinary evening with my friend.
