My only worry now is that the big guy is going to leave me a photo of the Maude P-40. :lol:

Of course, that would be nice also. :cry:

Well, as a kid he brought me an "Ideal Globemaster"...actually a C-82 with Army vehicles inside.

So now, how about a nice Bell 47?
A D-1, G, G2...3 4, or 5.
Not too picky.

Nice job providing options...I wasn't that smart.

Santa baby... Please swing over the Big Island of Hawaii, have your reindeer lift B-18 36-446 out of that gully and set it down where it can be restored! :D

Looks like he got hung up at Pioneer Aero. At least he's thinking P-40.
