: Well I am sure glad that you guys like the F-4. I know mos

: thought everyone else posts status messages about airplan

: ot as well.
:
: Unfortunately I can't claim hardly any credit for getting
: the jet in her current status but many people have busted
: their butts for the past year and a half going through eve
: ry little thing on that airplane. We have literally gone f
: rom nose to tail and haven't missed a thing. Every major a
: ctuator has been rebuilt, as well as the nose and right ge
: ar, the RAT (ram air turbine), cockpit radios, e-seats, sh
: eet metal work, you name it pretty much.

: So for one more message about her first flight, it will be
: tomorrow afternoon around 1-1:30. Today we completed a ve
: ry successful engine run and burner check. Both engines we
: re run up to full burner and when you are standing 50 ft f
: rom them, EVERYTHING shakes. The raw power is awesome.

: Thanks for the support guys.
