    Original MustangSteve no longer in employ of the MustangSteve company

    As most of you are aware, I started the MustangSteve company and this forum officially in 1999.  A few years ago, I sold the company and stuck around as a paid consultant. As of now, coinciding with the ten year anniversary of my retirement from the aircraft industry, I am officially retired from my duties associated with MustangSteve.

    As always, I am ready and willing to help with Mustang general questions. I just won't be dealing with Mustangsteve product related questions. Those will be handled straight through the MustangSteve company.

    I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of dealing with company related stuff, but the time has come for not having to answer that phone when it rings.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    SPEAKING OF FUTURE
    I was a policeman way over half my life and seen so many changes. I am so glad I grew up with the parents I had and grew up in the time period I did I was born in 1969.
    I dont think I would have near a good a time growing up now or the future,

    Yes, BB does know how to spell. The leDgend referral is about a major snafu a sign maker did on some huge posters.

    I’m glad I had a magazine subscription at the time.

    Throw it in neutral and enjoy your retirement Steve.

    I guess total congrads are in order. I've been working from home sense COVID and go out in the field a few days a week, semi retired. Will probably pull the the trigger in about a year and make it full. Enjoy!

    If this forum can't fix it, it isn't broke.

    The one in his 69 was the smoothest clutch I have ever used. I need to learn more it.
