The first country my mother and I visited while she was working for Air France was - yep - France - specifically Paris. This would be circa November 1968.

Moving from N. Merrick L.I. to Forest Hills, Queens was truly a culture shock for me. Going to Paris was off the chart. Thankfully I took French in high school and managed to get us from A to B and back to A.

One of the items was the French pissoir - outside urinal for anyone to use. It definitely came in handy drinking all that wine.

I dunno.

I worked with Chuck Jordan and it doesn't really look like him (to me) in that first photo.

Maybe. I never really saw him smile!

I owned Chuck Jordan's 1977 Donzi Sweet 16, there was a little wooded homemade glovebox under the dash and inside was an old metal Bandaid box that contained a small notepad and pencil, it had a detailed log and notes on every time he used the boat, hours, fuel, maintenance, etc.
I still have it, and when I was selling the boat around 2005 his son Mark called me to talk about the boat, he mentioned that he was a designer at Mazda. And on another note, when the boat was for sale that is how I met Olredalert.

I would say most of these design guys are very "fastidious".
