    I Just did a quick search and found this amazing website with additional info on your father, Phillip Adair. A true hero.

    That’s great to able to read first-hand accounts of loved ones who made history. I bet you are very proud Shad!

    Here’s a few pics of some of the older aircraft I worked on, that visited the shop I worked at while living over in Germany.
