And now the rest of the story...

The fellow who  flew with his son to the Aerodrome arrived at a local 
airport about a half  hour before the Corvair vehicle parade started.  The 
Aerodrome has no  radio tower. He called me on cell phone from the local airport 
and asked what  time he should fly by...I turned and asked one of the nearby 
Aerodrome folks  if they knew about what time a typical car parade ended. 
The fellow thought a  bit and said "Oh, about ...." and gave a time.  I told 
the pilot to  figure about...and relayed the time I was given.  I then took 
up last in  parade line and nervously watched both the sky and my watch as 
the parade  crept towards your announcing stand. Parade almost done, still no 
plane, you  putting the final touches on the closing remarks.....and  
then.....Vrooooooom!

Luck? Sort of. Do it again like that?  Nye  impossible!

That Corvair powered K-2 was a sight, such a sound, to  behold!
