Hate to see beautiful airplanes dying.

Thanks for saving her Gary. I hope you can bring her back to her former glory.

Thanks Dan. I'm quite positive the airplane will never fly again, and I'm still not too sure how far I'll get into the restoration of it, but that'll all just depend on how long it stays here at my place. If it's where I can see it everyday, then I'll likely be tinkering with it until it at least looks a little better. We'll see.

I just told my Dad about your new toy. He said there were some of those at Otis AFB while he was there. Oh, and he says "Hi". :)

Hi Gary,

I have a quick question: Do you own it? If so, how were you able to get it without the govt. requiring you to chop it up?

Regards,

Art S.

PS. Great toy!!!

Never mind - read the other thread and answered my own question!

Too bad that you can't own it outright.

Regards,

Art S.
