[Elecraft] So you think your K3 got special treatment?
It would take a lot less than that to get Eric out of the office and into the escape machine (Cessna). I'd venture to say that if the company aircraft could fly above the weather, he'd meet you at Cook just to practice his IFR. Co-Pilot would be Lerma. ;-) Lerma must also be an expert photographer, how'd she get that first photo while in the aircraft? [Elecraft] So you think your K3 got special treatment?

Eric, That sure looks like a *182*, beautiful job on the refurbishing. Thanks for sharing the photos. By the way, I've been thinking ever since I first looked at Elecraft website, your logo, the lazy E, looks a lot like the control wheel on one of those.
