I haven't seen it for a while but Lynn says he is coming right along. It is a wonderful project. Next time I am over there I will take some shots and post them unless Lynn does himself.

Thanks Rich,
Magnificent project, do we know which unit Lynn's Father flew with?

Thanks for the info, Rich... Taigh, where is this project located? and do you have an email where I could contact the owner? I would love to possibly feature this restoration as part of my restoration blog I am doing!
