According to the FAA records for Riley's Cherokee & Tomahawk, his last address is Rutledge, TN. MarkL requested photos from the family and I'm sure he'll post something when those become available. If someone has specific knowledge of the project, please speak up so as to help Riley's family. Respectfully, John Bouyea N133RM KR-2S OR81/ Hillsboro, OR
