Dr Wayne Drake
==============

We were saddend to hear of Wayne Drake passing away suddenly due to
complications in chemotherapy. Wayne Drake was a strong FAI contestant
in the 70s and early 80s. He flew all 3 events, having the most sucess in
F1A. He represented District 11 on the team selection commitee
for a number of years. He had cut back his flying while build a house
and was just getting back into it. Those of you who knew Wayne
might want to write to his wife Jean at 26842 SE Wally Rd, Boring OR
97009.
