Aug 18 Quickie from OSH

Tue Aug 18, 2009 2:01 pm

Hi All,

Found myself in OSH today (Aug 18 ) with an hour to burn and my daughter's crappy point-n-click, so here goes.

Devil Dog still sits unbuttoned in the Weeks Hangar. The few folks in the hangar at the time didn't know details, other than a new carb had been installed but motor still didn't sound right.

Mig that sleeps in the Marks hangar next door.

Time for some TLC

And a few random pics from the Basler boneyard.

And you didn't stop by to see your dearest friend at EAA? Shame on you! :twisted:

Sorry, Big Guy... I only had time for either you or Devil Dog.

The big race is to get my 16-year-old to his first varsity soccer match tonight. It's supposed to be televised on Preps on the Net, so be sure to watch for player #19 (and listen for the crazy dad in the stands).

Rumor has it that Devil Dog may need an engine change. At any rate, she'll be in OSH for a while...

darn, I would love to have one of those goonies. I am starting to love those airplanes. What is the plan for them?

What is the deal with that AC-47? Wasn't that on the airshow circuit not that long ago? I notice the helicopter is gone. I wonder where it is.

Chris, does this help with the correct ID of the camo model?

The big, green banana is still there. You can just make out a bit of fuselage and rotor behind #99.
