Lots of people here in our little town of Fairfax were wondering what that airplane was doing flying around town, BFA-Fairfax and Buck Hollow. Well, it was Major Marc Orton, son of Margot Orton who was here on a 24 hour layover. Marc graduated from BFA in 1992 and joined the Air Force 18 years ago. He is stationed at Colorado Springs and Margot tells me that he plans on retiring in 2 years. Marc is also the brother of Steve Orton and Steve & Lynn Orton have 3 youngsters attending BFA Fairfax and they were outside waving and shouting and holding signs when their Uncle Marc was flying overhead. Mike Cain was caught off guard, but did get a photo with his cell phone and JoAnne Wilkins got a photo of it, which I have in another post here on my forum. I just spoke with Margot and she sure is a proud Mom and rightly so - I did not want to put Marc's name up without someone's permission, so I knew if I got Mom's permission, it would be fine. Thanks for brightening up the day here in Fairfax Marc.
