Oops, it was serial number 15 that's in Pima. I flew this bird with Louise Timken, of Timken bearings. Friend of Amelia Erhart and the first woman typed in a Lear, she was a hoot to fly with. Learjet wanted a experienced captain to fly with her and I was the only one crazy enough to do it, so I got the nod! She was in her 80's when I flew with her and it was fun to watch but she did everything fine, just needed lots of help in case there was an emergency. Loads of fun...
