Ralph Widman is taking Jerry Stafford to see his 150 hp Colt, parked by the taxiway behind the DeJesus’ home. That’s not Ralph Gutowski’s Tri-Pacer – it used to be, but now resides here at Troy Skypark with its new owner Marla Boone. Kennet DeJesus (cap) welcomes David Schmaus, a student pilot at Waynesville, OH who is thinking about purchasing an airplane of his own - naturally Kennet suggested he consider a Short-Wing Piper! David Schmaus and his wife Tawana get a good orientation of Dale Kirby’s sharp PA22/20. Dale flies out of Greene County and is putting a lot of hours on his pride and joy.
