Hi Peter,
As you correctly postulated...that is President Eisenhower with his hand on
the Commander!
Cheers from Oz

Russell,
For some reason my computer will not let me e-mail to the chat page but I
can e-mail to individuals. As a follow up one of our pilots on his layover
in Joplin MO found a book in a used book store for $.25USD "The Flying Whit
e
House" that told the story of how President Eisenhower came to like Aero
Commander and how he made his "Secret Service" pilots go to Bethany and the
m
checkout. The story goes that they actually purchased 15 Commanders total.
If you will send me your address down under in OZ I will send you a copy of
the pages from the book that tell the story. If you want to share this
e-mail with the chat page it is fine with me. I will copy Sir Barry in too
our "Commander Historian"for he might enjoy the story but very possibly
already knows the story.
YOUR old FRIEND,
John Towner :-)

We recently had some Twin Commander Flight Group Hats made and they are available
to purchase for $10 each plus $5.00 postage.? Up to 4 hats can be purchased
for the same postage cost of $5.00.? If interested please send an email to yourtcfg@aol.com.?
Sorry, I'm not the best photographer, but hopefully you can get
a good idea of the colors and type of hat.? They come in tan with blue embroidery,
khaki with blue embroidery, navy with red embroidery and white with red
embroidery.? And, there is an adjustable strap on the back.?
Find phone numbers fast with the New AOL Yellow Pages!
