Pat, no one can say you're not persistent :D . As a matter of fact the code update for the B-17 section is complete (spent most of my holiday time off working on it) and it is live. I will be updating entries this weekend which will go much faster now that the new code is in place.

Sounds good Scott. Hate to be a pest.

Cool! I remember the first flyable Firefly in North America several years ago. The CWH operated it until it was lost doing low level aerobatics. Very graceful and cool. Would be nice to see a few more restored to airworthiness.

Does anybody have an update on Eddie Kurdzeil's Firefly after it's incident in Chino (If I recall correctly)?

Just wondering since it was such a nice restoration at the time.
