Patrik Hess of Hess Auto in Germany may know who it is. He is the one that bought my 75 914-6 2.7 conversion and it just left on the boat.

You should see an old Super Vee flywheel. I dunno how they got that chicken wire to work!

And Dino Martin flew an F4J into Mt. San Jacinto or Mt. San Gorgonio in or around 1988.

I just moved here to SoCal, I think, and they found very little wreckage.

What does Elliot say?

Maintain thy airspeed, lest the ground arise and smyte thee.

And that is what happened. Their radar was not terrain following in those days.

Him and his REO never knew what they hit.
