You worked for Jim Younkin!!! You lucky fucker!! Did you do any of the aluminum forming work on fairings and what not? Dammit man, I envy no man but it comes close with you!!
Yep i worked for JY. In the pics on the 4th mullicoupe i did all the alum. work except for the bump cowl that was done by Pat Neely who worked for JY when i was there. Pat also built the cowl for the now gone H-1 replica.

Skyboltone. i was wondering about your handle. got time in one of them also. I built most of the f2 waco that won custom champ at oshkosh in 94. I had work in 4 airplanes that won awards that year and got exactly zero credit for it.

Oh And JY is pretty good sax player.

My turn to say thanks, prompted by making a big stack of amps. One of these is made by a guy named Jim, the rest are mine, with a LOT of help from yous guys. Couldn't have done it without the help, and now I can (sometimes!) return the favor.
