Hi all,

I posted this on my Facebook page, but I thought some here might find this serendipitous discovery interesting:

I get the Aviator’s Bulletin magazine each month, but I didn’t get a chance to look at this October’s issue until just the other day. I was admiring the cover photo when I realized that it was a photo of my grandfather when he picked up his new Ryan SCW from Claude Ryan at the factory in 1937.
