Following Mark's encouragement, here's a pic not from the Cold War, just the current frosty midwestern US. That's my airplane being towed out of the maintenance hangar during a little parking re-shuffle. Thanks Mark for your positive energy on this sight and the awesome photos!

If I have to butter you up daily for you to grace our presence I'll be happy to do it. You Paul and a few other guys who no longer post much, if at all, used to set this site aside at a very, very high level of contribution and content. Not to say there's not guys who continue that level here regularly, but there's a certain core of members who very rarely participate here as they used to for reasons of their own, which is not my business to know or comment. Their simply just missed that's all.

Great, great to hear from you Paul. I hope all is good in your world. And that T-33 better be sharp, tough and ready for me one day soon. :wink:

Can't wait for this sub-zero midwest fun to be over so I can listen for and watch that T-Bird overhead.
