That's too bad about Owen he was a great man. He had so many great flying stories. There is no doubt that the powers that be need to change the name, he was quite a fixture there for a long time. LNA is a great GA airport and was a great place to work. I met alot of good people there that all shared the common thread of aviation. The one thing you notice about GA airports is that pretty much everyone there wants to be there as opposed to having to be there. Thanks again for posting those photos, it brought back alot of good memories.
