    Steve,

    I don't know much about your Porterfield. Donald Bishop owned it from Bowie, Texas, about 75 miles NW of Dallas. I'd talked to him some and he told me it was heading to Australia.

    I hope you don't have to wait too long for the Slick magnetos. Good Luck.

    The Collegiate is a great tailwheel trainer. She was the favorite among most CPTP cadets.

    That's a pretty creepy PM, Steve. Tom Porterfield approved him before I could check him out with our other ORA members. I'll just delete him and be done with him. Thank you for bringing this to my attention!
