LOOKING FOR GREG HOWARD last noted location ARK.

Post by derf62 »

Does anyone have any information on how Mr. Greg Howard could be located. I understand that he last lived in ARK and had a couple of 170"s, also past member?

If you are looking for Greg Howard the donut man, he passed away about 10 years ago in a midair collision near West Memphis while flying one of his 170's. Mr Howard, as he was known was a fine gentleman and is missed by the Memphis aviation community. Mr Howard had numerous planes, including 2 170's a 140A, a 172 and an Ercoupe. His family has sold all of the planes.

One of Greg's son John, took over one of his hanger in West Memphis Ark. (AWM) He also got the only 170B that was left. But unfortunately he had an accident with it and the insurance totally it. He bought a late model 172 and flys it often. Gary

I used to see Greg at several fly-in's around Tennessee. I remember hearing of his passing quite a while ago, but don't remember exactly when. I think I remember meeting up with him in Whitehorse, Yukon on the way to Anchorage in 2000. If that memory is accurate, that would have been the last time I saw him.

Did Greg used to own N170PS by any chance?
