RIP Brian Shul

Thanks for posting this. I haven't paid attention to anything aviation in the last week or so.

Here's a quick article of his life and death.

I had the chance to talk to him at the Reno Air Races one year when he wasn't busy. He was there every year selling his SR-71 book right behind the grandstands. Super nice and humble guy. I always wanted to buy one of his books but unfortunately couldn't justify that much money at the time. Hopefully someone is there to represent him at the last races in Reno in September.

He lived one heck of a full life.

RIP
 
RIP Brian.! I'm glad none of my rotary wing brethren in the TH-55 Mattel Messerschmitt chimed in that day at 50-55 grn speed.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
