I just started re-reading Success On The Step, Flying With Kenmore Air. If you haven’t read it do yourself a favor and get a copy. Started in 1946 with Taylorcraft, went on to operate and maintain largest collection of Seabees in the country before the Beavers. Their first full time mechanic employee in 46 was Tom Wardleigh.... Wish I would have been interested in history when I flew with Tom in Alaska! Great story of early float/bush aviation..
