John Kummer - Caterpillar Club
Online, August 12, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Punching out from a fighter air craft and surviving to tell the tale off is not a trivial accomplishment. Doing it twice is a miracle. Meet Aviator John Kummer who not only matched this unique lifetime feat that any pilot would be proud of, but in the process also became an ubiquitous member of the Caterpillar Club.
Kummer talks of the two of the most staggering events of his life and describes them in the most astute manner. Where was he flying? What went wrong with his plane and under what circumstances did he have to pull out? Hear him as he describes the inimitable joy and gracious relief felt by man after the feet touch solid ground - and falling in the most unexpected vicinity.
Kummer further confers about the planes he was flying and how the local residents made use of its debris and left-over's. He reveals what the pilots did with their parachute canopies in the olden time and how they brought it to use in the most conspicuous, suave, and gentlemen-like manner.
And lastly of the Caterpillar Club, an exclusive group the membership of which money can never buy.
