The start of the "Kiss" tradition.

THE HISTORY BEHIND THE TRADITIONAL KISS

The "Kiss" started when Ken Gulliford had helped Bill Herrmann construct and test fly a "Spitfire". After the test flight, Bill was so happy that he said "I could kiss you" and Ken said "put'er there" while offering his cheek. Thus began the tradition of Bill Herrmann giving Ken Gulliford a "Kiss" for helping him build and test fly his models.
