Right you are Chris...... While he MAY have been there... in 10 years & 20 York meets, I never personally saw Jerry at York even once. Guess he didn't like having his ears chewed off by rivet counters. This in the face in what was an informal industry tradition upheld by leaders of the hobby: Mike Wolf, Dick Maddox, Dick Kughn, Maury Klein, Jerry Williams, Joe Hayter, etc.... each of whom was glad to chat with their customers.
