Spectre623 Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 New commercial with a Herk in it on TV for an income tax company. Looks to be an A model dropping billions of dollars as CDS bundles. Anybody know the tail number? Cute. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark18mwm Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I just seen that commercial. That is one airdrop I want to be on the receiving end of! However, it seems I just only contribute to supplying the "goods" to drop. Ha-Ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Wester Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Ya, that was us. We filmed at Mojave in October. It was was about the most fun on a shoot I have had. The 2014 GMC Sierra Commercial in 2013 was fun too, but this was an easy shoot with a great crew and produced by Heather Heller. Flight Crew was: PIC - Bill Bosley, Co-Pilot - John Arp, FE - Yours truely, Flight Mechanic Aaron Ashworth. Loadies provided by another regular on this board. The aircraft is 57-0466 proudly owned, operated and maintained by TBM Inc. It's last USAFR duty assignment was General Billy Mitchell Field in Milwaukee. Interestinly enough, Bill Bosley has had a nearly 50 year relationship with 0466 having flown it in the 39th and 40th Squadrons at Lockbourne in the middle/late 60's and again in the early 70's at Duke Field. Back in 2011 we flew the old girl out to Maui and back. She's a flyer! Fritz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobdaley Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Did you ever fly with Larry Glenn or Henry Lee? They came to New Orleans and Kelly after EFD closed. Last time I saw Larry he was flying from ELP to Hou on SWA. He was flying FE on the NASA G-II. Last time I saw Henry he was our Customs agent when we came back fro Europe to IAH.Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
