Special Disaster Edition

FCA Members Ron Talley and Scot Thayer both experienced disasters. In Ron's case, it was a natural disaster in the form of tornadoes in Alabama. He gathered his friends and equipment and threw himself into the relief effort, all the while reporting for The National Falcon News. Can you help? Contact a relief center in your area to see what is needed.

Scot Thayer is just happy to be alive after a second tire blowout led to him deep sixing his 1961 Falcon into a very messy pond. He had been thinking he needed a new Falcon project - now he has one!

OK, wait a minute. This month’s Falcon is red too! Well, Cadillac Crimson Pearl Red, as a matter of fact—and yes, it does make a difference. This Falcon is a beauty, inside and out. The Editor had the opportunity to visit with Richard and Marilee and get the lowdown on their gorgeous car at the 2010 National Meet in Dearborn, Michigan.

They were kind enough to follow up with an "update"—not always a good thing, but in this case everything turned out fine. See the whole heartwarming FCA story starting on page 4.

This is the first of a series Destination: Dearborn articles, conducted and photographed at the 2010 National Meet in Dearborn, Michigan. Look for more, along with the rest of the Getting Down in Dover series in the next few months.

Maybe you think your not-so-red Falcon should be on the cover? Send high resolution (300 dpi at 8 x 10 inches) digital files to the Editor at the address on page 5. Be sure to include a few paragraphs about you and your Falcon.

Alex waited a long time to get his Ranchero. See his story on page 3.

There was so much convention coverage! And so little room! So we’ve decided to run more in this issue—and in February.

This issue covers Dick Harrington’s very popular hands on Tech Session as well as a look at the folks and Falcons on the show field.

Next month will feature Field Correspondent Rainer Hantschel’s look at the affair and comprehensive coverage of the valve cover races. They’re getting so competitive!

Use this opportunity to sign up for this year’s meet in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Plan your vacation around it, the area is majestic with lots of good hiking, shopping, dining and family activities.
