PLEASE, my dear AAFO friends and posters.
Show some respect for our beloved Rare Bear pilot
Mr. John Penney and spell his name correctly.
PENNEY! You wouldn't spell Shelton incorrectly would you?
God Bless Lyle Shelton.
God Bless John Penney. Godspeed. Sir!

People still don't get Greenamyer correct.
It took 30 years of racing for people to start getting Morss correct.
Maybe we need an Air Racing Spell Check?

Re: Respect

PENNEY...like JC Penney! Funny. John was signing an autograph while I waited to have my Reno Air Race poster signed in front of the Bear Cave and I made a comment about how his name must be the most misspelled name in aviation to which he replied, "you are very perceptive". He then mentioned JC Penney as a way to help remember the correct spelling. I didn't tell him my AAFO pen name is Hans. I almost crapped my pants when the other guy, visiting from Holland was actually Hans. I told him about AAFO and to be careful with his name especially around the RRIII pit. LOL!

Re: Respect

I noticed DB Mueller's name on the graphics of Rare Bear's trailer. He designed the Reno Air Race poster this year. RARA did well in choosing him.
