Dear Diane, Your article about flying at James Clements Airport Was wonderful. The pictures were splendid, and your sincere appreciation for the history and contributions of the airport touched my old heart: I am 82. James Clements Airport has been the focus of my historic research for about 30 years, so I guess it's ok if I make a few suggestions that would make your story accurate as well as it is delightful. The airport hangar is not on the National Register, The Airport Administration Building is. The Ad Building was never a farmhouse for anyone. It was built to be the Administration Building for the new Airport. James Clements did die in France in World War I of a flu called the Spanish Lady that swept the whole world killing 30 million people. It was the worst pandemic of modern times.
AS a former pilot I hope you will return and take flying lessons. It's a blast! Gerry Higgs |

Thank you so much for the clarifications Geraldine! I knew I should have bought your book!
I apologize for the discrepancies. I fact checked best I could from story archives on Bay-Journal. I appreciate you taking the time to set us all straight. I really enjoyed my experience and could picture myself "behind the wheel" sometime in the future. Sincerely, Diane |
