To all my friends at Harris Hill, I have been meaning to send out a note thanking everyone at Harris Hill for their friendship and guidance over the last 3 1/2 years. As most of you know I was on loan to Schweizer from the Sikorsky mother ship in West Palm Beach, Florida for the X2 project. I joined the Hill my first summer up there and flew as much as my commuting lifestyle would permit. My time in Elmira came to an end at the beginning of July when the X2 moved to our Development Flight Test Center in West Palm Beach for the high speed envelope expansion. I am busily attempting to readjust to the 6 months of summer heat and living full time with my wife. I do miss the cooler weather and the time I spent on the hill. You are a great group of folks. I would like to send out a special thanks to Bryan Cotton, Dave Welles and Rolf for helping me real get into the soaring. I apologize for any confusion about my duty times. I thought I had verbally conveyed the fact that I was going back to Florida for good. As I am now back in Florida full time I would like to change my member status from senior active to associate. I hope to still get up there for occasional visits and retirement is not all that far away. Thanks for all your support. Dave Walsh
