The Gee Bee whisperer. He can tame any wild GB😀. I say with respect.

[@jgrass5814]

Truth to power! “Pilots killed pilots not the aircraft killed the pilot”. Bold statement but honest and accurate. “Pilots have a difficult time taking responsibility!” Wow a real Pilot just said that.

[@robertberry3749]

I Meet Delmar in a Fly in by Bakersfield Ca. I flew my Duane Cole Clipped wing from Modesto Ca. just to watch him fly his Gee Bee...Best pilot I ever knew. Also saw him in Watsonville and Oshkosh. Robert Berry

Humble guy. I had a chat with him at OSH '99.

[@normg2242]

If I could ask him just one question, it would be - how did he manage to take an extremely dangerous plane, do the most crazy stuff with it and always stay on the safe side of its limit?

[@skooter2767k]

Easy, stay within the limits. Don’t exceed them. That’s true in ANY airplane

[@normg2242]

@skooter2020 good point! However in this plane I'd be too scared 5o find out where the limits are...lol
