I don't remember being disappointed that I couldn't have a store bought costume, but I did want a more authentic flying helmet than a paper bag over my head and my dad's work goggles, but I have to admit, it worked!
I think in later years my mom would say that when she worked on it, my Dad thought it was a dumb idea, but when I was so happy with it, and that it won the most original prize, he shut up about it.
It's really no wonder I got all into Airplanes, why I got to fly as an Aircrewman in the Army, why I'm perennially getting my pilot's license. I didn't stand a chance...

OK that is exactly what I wanted to see!
Very cool.
Just how were you able to tell when your dad "shut-up about it?" I mean, I can't see how he could function with saying any less than he already does.
Maybe it's the marriage thing. God knows I'd love a month or so that I wouldn't have to talk about daily marriage nonsense.
Great pics!
That is the coolest costume! Sweet!
