We would have had three if someone had secured the 5 gallon fuel cans for the auxiliary generator better than by using bungee cords. Still makes me sick! </div></div>

I had totally forgotten about the KeeBird Rick. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/mad.gif[/img] I wonder if there were any real A &amp; P mechanics there [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] makes me wonder.

Yeah, that Nova episode, &quot;B29 Frozen In Time&quot; got me all built up only to have me crash at the outcome. That was just plain sad...

My son and I went for a ride on FIFI last summer and it was money well spent!

Fantastic! The B-17 Texas Raiders is based out of the Hooks Airport which is about 3 miles from my shop. I'm on the final for the one runway there, and I can be grinding away and hear the radials through my ear protection. I'll stop to go see it lumber overhead. I'm going to take my Dad up for a ride in it in the Spring. Thanks for posting Mike!
