The top photo of Bruce with his Phantom is from my first contest in 2005, (it was hotter than blazes.)

Another shows the “classic” photo used in the newsletter for his “From the President” column.

He poses with the traditional Asheville cake ten years later in 2015. 

One picture shows his son Cass taken at Hodges, I believe in 2007.

I took two “Fab Four” photos (probably 2006-2007),  in Knoxville. Amazing that I managed to get all these guys to pose.

Bruce was always there to mentor new pilots, here’s one example.
