Go Wally Go!

Wally Reed, one of our Chapter members, made his first Flight in the "Ganagobie" on Thursday July 14th, 2005. Wally's experience was featured in EAA's Sport Aviation Magazine December 2005 issue, Childhood Dreams Come Full Circle.

The actual photos are here for you to enjoy. Wally's First Flight. The names may or may not have been changed to protect the innocent. You figure it out. Some of these guys were supposed to be at work or at least that was what the boss and/or wife was told.

Wally taught Math at Linn Benton College for many years and he also writes columns for the newspaper in Reedsport, OR.
