Reminisces
"I remember when.....
An offer of pictures from Terry Haug prompted creation of this page
Terry now lives in Lake Lotawana, MO, but back in the 1970-1975
time period,
Terry worked part-time for Bill, doing things like stripping paint
from airplanes in return for flying time.
Here's the first of, we hope, a number of photos from that era:
Sam Ramsey and Bill Aronson,
circa 1985, in the Skypark "Sales Office"
Terry offered the following comments with
the picture:
"I
flew but a few times with Bill, but I have never flown with a
smoother pilot at the controls. He was simply magic.
George
Green was the full time mechanic during the time I worked there.
Great memories for me. We assembled a kit sailplane (Laister
LP-49, N45L) in the building just south of the large hanger in the
east half. Bill's father, Ted Aronson, worked on his
Taylorcraft in the west half. There was second similar
building on the south of our hangar. That building in the pic was
converted to a sales location for the new development. Check
out the posters hanging on the wall. Both buildings were moved
from Edwards AFB and transported to Rosamond."
