Bruce & Kathy's '54 170 also garnered awards at the 170 convention for Best C-170B and People's Choice Award. Really a beautiful plane. Shows how much dedication they have to keeping a nice plane in great shape. This was also Bruce & Kathy's first 170 convention. We will be looking for the award winner in San Diego next year. CONGRATULATIONS :!:

Kathy and I have just returned home to Susanville, CA and tucked 65Charlie safely back in her hangar. We're still grinning in amazement at the wonderful reception we and our plane received in Michigan and Wisconsin. Thanks again, for all the kind words and our beautiful awards... They're presently gracing the lobby of our FBO/Pilot's Gathering Spot at KSVE, where they can be shared and enjoyed by all the local force who helped us, and cheered us on.
Proudly,
Bruce and Kathy Rhymes
