Saw one around that time at an airfield south of Seattle, was amazed, the pilot gets off,lifts the nose and points it down the runway. Also saw the original Bowers Flybaby that day.

I worked with Carl Ungers son, Rob in the early days of my aviation career. Rob took me up in that Breezy from a cornfield runway near Beecher, Il and I was absolutely thrilled. Carl was a great man as is his son! What a legacy.
