The gray is on the bottom and the camo will start going on in about 45 minutes (about 3:00 CST)

Owen, she's already a well maintained flyer. We flew her into Midland 3 weeks ago. She'll fly out to Ellington as soon as she's done at the paint shop. Shouldn't be much longer.

The public roll-out will be on March 29th at Ellington Field. That is when Bud Day will be there to take a flight in his F-100 again. We plan on flying the F-100, F-4, TA-4, T-33 and UH-1 Huey that day. I am sure there will be some training flights taking place before that, but nothing that is hard scheduled yet.

Any idea when she will be leaving Midland? I missed the arrival by about 10 minutes. I sure would like to see it leave. I caught a glimpse of it earlier in the hangar and it looks pretty much done as far as I could tell.

Rick and Chris are out there now doing the pre-flight. As of right now the plan is fly out tomorrow morning. If you stop by today they may know a more accurate time. They are hoping for something around 10 AM.
