My father and I have embarked on a warbird tour of florida...at least the shops.
Weeks...not a whole lot new. the B-24 has been cleaned and markings repainted. New phase well underway
Reilly...lots of progress on the B-17 all 4 engines hung...wiring going in...really looks first class. P-40 projects are progressing nicely... 2 of them.
Stallion51...Spit, p-40, and 4 Mustangs are currently in the main hangar...bought a shirt and headed for New Smyrna.
909 is well taken apart and being overhauled. outer wing panels are off as is the stab. Skins are being taken off and and the interior is already being cleaned up. The Corsair is unbelievalble. The quality of this restoration is stunning. Can't wait to see her fly!
Off to the 8th air force museum...then to see Glacier Girl...
