           The Kalitta's weren't my choice of favorites but, gotta give then credit for their efforts and successes though. Too bad about Scott. Checked out fuzzy's link and learned that Connie was "The Bounty Hunter". I remember The "Bounty Hunter" well, but didn't remember that Connie WAS "The Bounty Hunter". Shame that those 2 boys have to grow up without their Dad too!  :(

            Thanks for posting fuzzy, hadn't heard. :-\

Used to fly a 727 for Doug.

Had a chance to hang out with the whole Kalitta group at the Columbus Nationals a couple years back.

Very sad.
