I remember those days as well with much fondness. I had a chance to chat with Richard when he was in the US for the Reno, NV air races and AVSIM convention. I stayed with John Dekker of Radar Contact (I was a beta tester for many years) and since I got into scenery design, the time with Richard was great fun! Diamond Point is a beautiful place for real and also a favorite for the circuit to Emma Field (now with Cushman in the area), Olympic Field many others in the area.
