Please join me in prayers and good thoughts for Pat Panzera at CONTACT! Magazine.

Pat is a US Navy veteran and is suffering from one or more very serious service-related health conditions. Pat was one of "The Ramp Rats", the glider operation "line boys" and "just always there" crews at the famous El Mirage gliderport back in its glory days. My understanding is that Pat had been exposed to some dangerous levels of radiation working on submarine reactors, and this likely caused the health conditions he is now facing.

Pat is a very enthusiastic supporter of homebuilt airplanes and E-AB engines, auto conversions, alternate powerplants, etc. Super nice guy, and deserves our best wishes and even a prayer or two.
