Hard to pin down without a full name.

Posted at FLacebook and the FL Club:
DEN aircraft mechanic Andy Andersen's memorial webpage has been upgraded.
http://FAL-1.tripod.com/Andy_Andersen.html
Still have very little info on Andy.
His last name is misspelled in Ken Schultz's database
and we don't even have his full name.
Post any info you have on Andy.

If this is the Andy I'm thinking of several things come to mind. 
First off, he was an excelent cartoonist and kept us mechanics laughing. 
You could always tell it was Andy 
on a cold winter day because he never wore long sleeves.
I pretty certain that Andy went to work for Piedmont in Indy.

Yep, But I believe his last name was Elliott. We work together as cleaners 
and then on the ramp as technicians. Him Line maint, me GSE maint. Some of 
his greatest cartoons were the "Elephant Airstart cartoon". If you saw it 
you know what I mean. One use in a grievance was " Lady on the ice bucket" 
and Fat Albert cartoon. 
By the way Howdy to you Muleman. 
Glad to see some of the guys I knew are still around.

I think Marsh (My old Evergreen nabe) is confusing Andy Elliot with Andy Anderson. 
Elliot started as a cleaner and went into Maint about 1978.
He was an awesome cartoonist and had turned down jobs at the Denver Post. 
He did work the DEN line and did not wear a coat nor long sleeve's ever. 
Andy Anderson was a Heavy Check Tech, 
do not recall him ever on the DEN line and the age and hire dates fit. 
Marsh, one of your Mules musta kicked ya in the head.
