Jack those are great. As someone that helped out in the restoration of it, that aircraft holds a special place in my memory.

I was out at AUS doing some solo time at my flight school and stopped by the FBO to check out the B-24, B-17, B-25, P-51 and the Huey. Very impressed. Had a good crowd out there. The Huey rides seemed the most popular, but I've seen the 17 and 24 tooling about the city. Betty Jane had three guys polishing it up. Looked fantastic.

Yeah, yeah, Jack, I know that YOU have a bunch more. :lol: I should have directed my question to Young Shep regarding the Austin stop.
