George Beyl is the ferry pilot for the Skybolt 300. In addition to that duty, he helps the entire Team with logistical support and emergency repairs. He is retired from a major airline, but continues to teach A&P classes on occasion at Tulsa Technology Center. George is an FAA Fast Team member and does a number of safety and other aviation presentations during the year. George is famous for his common sense approach to problem solving. Nothing is beyond the scope of his experience which is widely varied from his service in the Marine Corps to a long history of debugging new technology on numerous airline aircraft. George is so memorable and well traveled that during shows we play the ‘six degrees of separation’ game and can usually find at least one person on the airport connected to George or his family.
Marilyn Darnell is the Crew Chief for the Flash Fire Jet Truck and also wife of Driver Neal Darnell. Among her various duties are communications with Team Members during the Team Chaos Performance to make sure the Jet Truck and both airplanes are all in sync with one another at all times. The Success of the Team Chaos Finale and Race is dependent on her timing and signalling skills. She also serves as Team Referee to make sure we all agree on how it's to be done. Her responsibilities also include starting the big Jet Engine on Flash Fire and towing the Jet Truck into position on and off the Runway with her Beautiful Yellow Corvette Pace Car. Marilyn is a huge part of Team Chaos and we all agree on one thing--'We couldn't do it without her'.
