hey, are we going to get video of 'that' too? I don't think they let you put videos like that up on YouTube.

Viking - linking your PLANE video into the article now, with full credit. Thanks again!

Please take a moment to enjoy this video of an interview done with Norm Meyer Sr. that morning before the final flight.

Who the hell is Norm Meyers that I should be agog over his house and person?

No one is suggesting you be agog, sounds like it may be painful anyway.
It is just a public interest story of a long time resident

Norm Meyer has done a lot for the Conifer community.
He has provided hundreds of acres for Open Space so that the beautiful scenery in Conifer can be preserved.
He is a huge donor to charities such as the Mountain Peace Shelter as well as other important charities in the mountain area.
He has been a part of mountain history for many years and is an interesting and colorful gentleman.
If you, as a Park County resident are not interested, then move on but please be respectful of the Jefferson County members here who are interested in the heritage of their community.
I personally loved watching the video. He is such an interesting funny guy.

I'm agog.

Seriously, Mr. Meyer's contributions to Conifer and its history are significant. Well said, Becky. (And I still find myself glancing at the hangar every day driving by, always a little surprised that it's empty.)

I hadn't realized how much of a habit it was to check the plane until it was gone.

Yup, sad it's gone, flew so many x's with Norm it seems like an empty spot.
Get a call at 6:00 am and hear "wanna go flying?"
went to MT, all over CO and even learned to fly take off, and er, but, not land. Tail draggers are a little tricky and Norm would remind you every time.
Funny to see people in their cars DUCK as you took off.

Some real funny stories I got from him but are a little too long too relate here.
And then our funnies are also long but he still lives the adventure life.
