What a fabulous year of EAL Radio Show broadcasts!  Putting this one together, I was amazed at the topics we aired. I remember when we first went on the air - a cast of ONE - me. I remember being told it would only last for a year or less.  We're into our 9the Year!  And it's because of the dedication and love for Eastern Airlines that folks like you show up and/or listen to these weekly broadcasts.,  It's also because of the individual support and that of the Retired Eastern Pilots Association - REPA that keeps it going.  Thanks to all and enjoy this review of the quality shows done in 2018.  God Bless you all. I hope you can be with us.  Neal
