Talked to Merrill once about 1965 or 66. I was trying to get him to speak to my CAP squadron. Too busy.

One reason I mentioned him was that he had done a trans-Atlantic round trip in a L-10E shortly before AE started her final trip. They met in MIA and exchanged note.

He was a local 'celebrity' having been chief pilot for EAL.

Have a nice one!
