...the $64,000 question about FAH 609!


se ha considerado que el 609 vuelva a alzar vuelo algun dia? by zorro01.

Translation: Does FAH 609 have the potential to ever fly again??

Nice job with the instrument panel! I'm glad to see the 24HR clock back in position. The black flat is also a nice touch for an old warrior!!

p.s missing fm the picture is a one-of-a-kind factory metal plate that was located at the lower L/hand corner!! it simply said " 124715! "
