Notes: 1969 was the year that Nick Jones completed his 2nd or 3rd Cassutt racer depending on how you count it. His first was in a spectacular mid-air collision in 1966 with Jerry Quarton at Fredrick Maryland. He rebuilt that wreck and then totally destroyed that airplane at the 1967 Fort Worth Air Races during a required dive test. Mother Holiday, named in honor of Leo Holidays mother would make its debut in 1969. |
