| Dad called and invited us to go to the Lockheed Employees Day. This was a static display of some of the Aircraft Lockheed had produced in the past. On these pages you will see a varietty of aircraft ranging from the work horse C130 to the Stealthy new B2 Bombmer. The picture to the left is one Dad is vary proud of. He has several patented hydraulic spool valves in the manifold block to his left. These are installed in all C5 Aircraft Hydraulic Systems. Most, if not all the Flight Control Surfaces and Loading Doors are controlled by the Hydraulic System. |

| The hydraulic block in the background have Dad's spool valve designes incorporated. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
