BILL HUFFMAN 1961 - 1983 PILOT GSW DAL DFW DEN Central was the launch customer for the CV 600 although Trans Texas wasn't far behind. Bill Huffman and Gene Postlwaite were the CEN reps at SAN for pilot input and maintenence input, respectively. Both came out of it with some hearing loss from the 3000 hp "Dog Whistles"! All the CEN conversions were done by Convair but TTA saved some money by doing their own. -Frosty Frost (6/14/99) I flew with Owen Cook after only 1 month with Central (3 day trip), and a month later he asked me to come into the training department with Bill Huffman, where we wrote the CV-600 manual. -Clyde Hart (3/10/00) Here's a photo by CV600 Dart engine on west side of hangar in Aug 1970, prior to sale.
