I will post some pics late next week with the fuselage wings and landing gear attached so you will get almost the whole picture.


Tks 262. I was wondering if this was P Allen 262 that could have landed back in NA.

Any news on that one ?

No problem anytime! No this is not Mr. Allens this is a static display meant for a museum and has been made to never fly! As far as FHC's 262 what I've heard is that progress is very slow and is still at JME and should arrive in the U.S.???????????????????

Yes sir sorry I missed meeting you and Hal. Next time! It looks like we were very near each other at the same time judging by our pictures, it looks like you were right below me on the south side of the ramp.

Hey guys thanks for the info and pics of N119DP. These are the first pics I have seen of it since it left CT. I had heard at OSH that it went to the PNW and it is nice to see it out and about.

Spooky, you take outstanding photos.
I don't miss being there as much since you manage to bring the events to me through your camera and great eye for capturing the moment.
Congrats on your A2A work also.
