When I talked to Ernie Threlkeld he told me the red one he had was turned back to Mercury....could the red one in question possibly be the same wing in another life ??? Talking to both Kenny and Ernie the red wing they had was heavy and never ran that well.
The history of Ernie, Jan and Kenny breaking each others records in wings back and forth is interesting.
