Cool guy. Amazing life.

I remember many years ago at an airshow, it was raining and we were all in this big hangar and he pulled a violin out of his Yak and played, "Ode To The Unflown Sequence". Or something like that.

Clever marketer too. When the other airplane factories were directly chasing the few sales a year they could get, Gord went to the model shows and manufacturers to build a brand. A couple biplanes in the world doesn’t raise too much recognition in the type but a couple biplanes and a couple thousand RC models are another story. You’d be hard pressed to find an RC flier over about thirty five who doesn’t know what an Ultimate is.
