Aero-News: Quote of the Day (11.15.08)

"Santa Paula was Steve's church and he really loved the city with all of his heart and soul. He was treated like a normal person there where he could relax and be himself, hang out with friends and fly his planes. I'm really looking forward to coming back because it was a big part of my life. It'll be good to renew some of those old ties and make new friendships."
