June, 2012 Currently, I am in the process of retiring from the past ten years of full time real estate sales of land and residential properties. We have homes in AZ & TN. At the end of 2010 I allowed my currency to expire as a commercial and multiengine rated pilot. We just bought a boat to use in retirement on Dale Hollow Lake on the state line of TN & KY. We continue to farm in northwestern OK with wheat, milo, soybeans and alfalfa. Interest in aviation continued after serving four years in the AF. I did a government aerial photography contract for the Dept. of Agriculture for ten years after using my VA benefits for the ratings above. I continue to fly for a private professional photographer for about another four or five years, using my commercial rating.

Anyone who served in any capacity on F4's at Davis-Monthan between 1966-70 please contact me if interested in revisiting those days. Also, anyone from the 49th TFW from Holloman AFB, NM who deployed on project Reforger/Cripple Creek in 1969, I would appreciate hearing from you as well. Warm Regards, Bruce Bilbrey, Carefree AZ.
