Tracy,

    Happy retirement !!..........I retired in 1997 to play with my toys.........I seem to recall you retired once to play with yours
and ended up being dragged into starting a business by the likes of all of us "Rotor Heads"...............Like Ed Anderson I
still have one of your first products and over the years have accumulated a version of most of your other products.......l so
enjoyed the trips to your "Rotary Roundup" that I was able to attend over the years..............Most of the progress on my
Rotary powered "Dyke Delta" project stopped seven years ago due to the needs of ageing parents........My mother passed
in May and I hope to return to more active work on that project shortly.............You are a  Treasured Friend and I hope to
cross paths with you again in the future.............

All the Best to You and Yours,

  Kelly Troyer
Dyke Delta_"Eventually"

Ah, my old friend, a sad day indeed for some of us, but happy for you and Diana.  More time for the dragon’s tail in NC and other fun stuff.
 
I fondly remember our first contact shortly after your (and the Otter) appeared on the cover of KITPLANE – way long time ago.  I recall getting one of your first products – the ignition computer (in the tin box) along with you excellent manual – bound with copper brads – remember that?
 
I join so many others with a hearty “THANKS!” – few of us would be flying behind a rotary today – if not for you and your products and knowledge so freely shared.
 
Now you’ll have time for you and Diana to drop by for a visit and our famous “Gin and Tonic” mixes by the pool.
 
See you around.
 
Best Regards and Wishes
 
Ed

Retired from new production ( still have some EC3 & EM3s in stock)  but I plan to support everything in the field for the foreseeable future.
 
I'm working with the Cozy Girls at CG Products to pick up production on gear drives.

I just heard that Tracy has retired.  Have we been talking about it but I missed it?  Happy for Tracy, sad for us.  Anyone out there have the time an skills to pick up where Tracy leaves off.
 
Paul Lamar is working on an improved gear box that has promise, but so few of his projects ever come to fruition that it might be a long wait.
 
Anyone?
