I was so delighted to find my mother's cousin husband's picture in one of the classes listed. He was Kenneth Billingsley and was one of the flying instructors at the Tex Rankin Academy. It is so wonderful that you have put these great historical pictures on line. This may be the only way this bit of history can be saved.
