<DIV>Hi Bill.....</DIV>
<DIV>Yes, she worked at the top of that steep drive.</DIV>
<DIV>I went up there one time on my GL-1000 and almost flopped the thing right
at the top. Of course, that was many years later.</DIV>
<DIV>The wife worked at Bonner from 66' until we moved from Culver City to
Redondo Beach in 69'. I think Howard retired soon after and closed the
business. I sorta remember asking her if she knew Edie and I'm pretty sure she
did. Wifey did most of if not all the flow soldering at Bonner through those
years....especially the servos.</DIV>
<DIV>Gordon Larson, Howard's electronic engineer restarted business as 'RS
Systems' in Santa Ana I think. Bob Novack who was a tech at Micro Avionics
bought RS sometime later and went on to become very popular in the race car
group.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I don't actually remember the Downs buying Col. Bob's because by that
time we were on the south side of LA and I didnt go uptown much. I did sorta
hung at Wilshire Models a bit.</DIV>
<DIV>Good ol' Hans.....he was quite a modeler....and a really nice guy
too.</DIV>
<DIV>One time Hans handed me the stick of a Orbit 3 + 1.....now THAT was an
experience.</DIV>
<DIV>I gave it back right away!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The wife died about a year ago and in fact I am in San Diego right now
for our sons wedding....today, in fact!!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Did your wife work in Howards's shop on Jefferson
Blvd. in L.A.? Did she work there before/after/during the time that
Edie Downs (Ray Downs wife) worked there? You may remember that Ray
and Edie bought Colonel Bob's Hobby Shop on Pico Blvd.across from Sears,
about 1968. It was a real treat to see Edie cover a Smog Hog or Astro
Hog wing with one piece of nylon. The craftsmanship was
immaculate. I always wished I could get my wife to do my covering
jobs; instead they looked as if they had been done by one of my
kids.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>HAH.....I still have 2 of them. Amazingly, they worked pretty well
back then once you discovered how to keep the servos from crapping
out.....but then, my wife worked at Bonner Specialties so I may have had a
slight advantage in that regard.</DIV>
