Great pictures, thanks for sharing !

Hey Bill, We have to stop crossing paths and never meeting like this. I was at Anzio this Saturday and also at the arrival of the Shack at DM. Neat pics though. I maintain SU SU, Beautiful Brit T-6 and the Staggerwing that were there. Maybe you met the owner, Nazy Hirani. Great guy! Is there any way you could send me the first pic of the Churchills T-6 as it is taxing out. The guy marshalling them out is a close friend named "Boone". I'd like to E-mail him the pic. Like he says, the marshallers never get any publicity unless someone screws up. BTW, any more news on a WIX gathering at Chino this year?

darn, I missed Chris and Bill too! I was around really late in the day for the last flight of Barbie...

Still thinking about the WIX gathering at Chino... anyone have anymore thoughts on it? Scott and I will be there Friday AM through Sunday, but I still think Friday night is best so those of us who want to go to the Saturday night event at Chino can do so. That still a plan?

Chris, I was there from about 9 to 12:30. I talked to Nazy, I think, he was wiping down the Staggerwing and he stopped so I could get some pics. He said the Beech was his favorite plane to fly. Send me your e-mail address and I will send all the pics with your friend in them, I have several. Also I was at Prescott last year and probably crossed paths there.
