The September 22-23 issue of the Ozark Mountain Newspapers Independent carries a lengthy and very well-done story on our USPA member Mark Trimble of Branson, MO, which begins, “One of Branson’s true pioneers might be considered a senior, but that doesn’t mean he is out to pasture unless he is landing one of his airplanes in it.”
Complete with some great photos of Mark and his wife Lea, the story tells of Mark’s early interest in cars and airplanes (among other collectibles), his development of the Shepherd of the Hills theater and associated attractions, and, of course, his passion for flying. He currently owns 21 planes, many of which are rare and extremely collectible, and they keep him busy maintaining them and deciding which one to fly each day.
We’re proud to call Mark Trimble a friend and a member of USPA!
