markd_nscr986 0 #1 December 19, 2005 Your help please....... I have a log book entry of the first Texas 40 way being completed on May 24th,1980 at Spaceland out of a Twin Otter formation.........I was in the next to the last "wave"......we built it off a five man base..... I did not record who was in the formation.......I have a pretty good idea,but if you would be so kind as to put word out and check logbooks, and let me know,I would appreciate itMarc SCR 6046 SCS 3004 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But there was a photo of an April 5th, 1980, 40-way formation done at Z-Hills. So it looks like they beat the Texans... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
