(Hfpayne) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 05:14:50 PM PST US Subject: Commander-List: Re: Moe Mills. From: "Hfpayne" I met Moe at the Twin Commander University held at the EAA head quarters in Oshkosh Wisconsin.I came into a meeting room for one of our seminars and took an empty seat. I looked to my left and saw this gentleman with shoulder length hair,dressed in a cowboy out fit complete with a leather vest and really neat snake skin boots. (blue?).He was talking to a mature,clean cut ,gentleman. I could heard some of their conversation and it sounded to me like they were discussing the deck clearance of the pistons in some airplane engine. I had an amateur back ground in drag racing and recognized the lingo.At some point when one of them stopped talking. I asked if that was in-fact the topic. Moe confirmed that it was. I asked him how he knew about this stuff and he informed me he was involved with a company that made racing pistons. I asked who bought them and he said most of the people in the Indy 500. I asked who the other knowledgeable guy was and he replied Dick Macoon AKA Mr RPM and holds more STC's and inventions for Commanders than any one else. I became friends with both of them. Moe and I walked the EAA museum together that evening. He read each description on each plane in its entirety and added in depth details of his own. A truely amazing man. I regret *I never hooked up with him for a ride in his great airplane. The economic down turn has kept me away from the most recent get togethers. I have hopes for Savannah. He will be greatly missed.
