Several conversations with Jeanette over the S&F week. There was no end to her praise of your workmanship on Miss Piggy. (I'm sorry, I just can't bring myself to say Sky Pig until after the maiden flight.) Just thought you'd like to know. Other interesting stuff, She is very interested, in a positive way, in the outcome of Pettaway's experience with the new wing. Bruce S.
