A personal note on Kyle and Amanda Franklin - We'd like to add our voices to all of those in the aviation community that are wishing Kyle and Amanda a very speedy recovery after the accident this past weekend. Personally, I appreciated the way they dealt with all the kids at the autograph tent at the Indianapolis Air Show last year. Lots of bright smiles and kids leaving happy because they got to meet "someone cool" at the air show. Mike
