Hi, Enviable Steve! :-)
: A BIG thank you to Brad Pilgrim for coming up with about 2
: 000 pages worth of Sea Fury manuals for me. My secretary
: will probably shoot me on Monday when she sees the "little
: copy job I have for her".
:
: I'm off to Rockford in the morning for some formation prac
: tice with the rest of my L-39 gang. Gotta get ready for t
: he season.
:
: Nelson Ezell is making good progress on the Sea Fury, and
: it should be ready in another week or so.
Been there once...Furies all over the place...sheer heaven! Just remember, when the time comes for paint...maple leaves in the roundels. :-) (Actually, truth told, it appears that the RCN was the ONLY navy that actually used the familiar double-grey--everybody else went with some variation or other of RN grey-and-Sky.)
: One interesting bit of news this week; one of our L-39 for
: mation group,Paul "Grasshopper" Wood is now the proud owne
: r of a T-2B Buckeye, previously owned by Wiley Sanders. S
: H Grasshopper!
Most cool.
All the best with "Southern Cross"...
