hey fellas.  kermit opie was my grandfather.  i was searching for pics of nose art and the crew when i came across this.  the name of the plane was "DYNAMITE JOHN".  he named it after my father who was about to be born.  my grandfather passed away in the early nineties.  i named my son after my father and now my son has a radio flyer tricycle with a "dynamite john" sticker on it that i had made.  hope this was some help.  later.

Mr. Lahey, my grandfather is Kermit Opie.   My understanding is he and your father stayed in touch with Grandpa buying vehichles from him.  Please feel free to email me we may have photos the other does not.
