Conrad are you going to be driving through to St Francis for the breakfast? Maybe someone attending can help you out while you are there.

Demon, John Young and the other pilots at St Francis, it was a pleasure to meet you. Softness and I had a great time.
Will try to be there next year again if the breakfast happens and hopefully some more microlighters will try to make it.
Demon Clem was there in the Jora.
