Well he was only 1 min 5 sec too late!
Here in UK we call that bad luck.  What do you call it?

Just to add a little more:

Jim Byers and Dick Jones were partners in making the Meteor (see Solved puzzle NEH 51) and when Jones moved to California he took the design with him.  Byers changed the sides and rear and called his version the Byers SR-100.  Kellison also listed the SR-100 later on.

You got the point.  Don't really know what you're quibbling about.  It was an innocent enough comment.
