Flying off into the Sunset

There are some cool pictures of my last flight at a friend's website. Click this link to see them.
As with most of my career with The Martin Agency, the flight went safely, but not particularly in accordance with the original plan. We were taking the Chairman and his wife to NY for a dinner, and upon trying to return, Richmond was shut down in fog. So we hustled some hotel rooms for everyone, and tried again in the morning. Kate Meacham, from our "First Monday" wine group, was the Air Traffic Controller on duty for the Richmond landing, and you need to see the pictures to see what she set up for my last flight. It was a touching ending to a fine career. Many thanks to all who made it safe and meaningful.
