You've been a huge help, thank you.

Sorry to take so long getting them up but last weekend turned into an adventure.

a reply to: Zaphod58

No worries, I'm on sick leave/vacation so I'm Just glad that I had something to do and could be of some minor assistance while the rain keeps on pouring down.......

I'll get back to you as soon as the museum gets back to me

I've got Various pictures I may post, but are there any specific ones you want me to put up?

a reply to: Zaphod58

Whatever Various pics you want is fine with me.

a reply to: Sammamishman

any goofy road trip photos? you can always blur your faces or censor them. any las Vegas shenanigans?

I have a hard time thinking you two spent a whole week together and didn't get up to something funny at one point.

Dude, by the end of the day we were lucky to stagger back into our rooms, let alone get up to anything. It was freaking hot out there.

a reply to: Zaphod58

Well, we did go rabbit hunting....

a reply to: Sammamishman

True, although he came to us. I think the Circle Deer confused him.

a reply to: Zaphod58

Confused the Hell out of me too. Lol.

a reply to: Sammamishman

You aren't the only one. Ha!

Tic, toc...tic, toc.

I've tickets for the Abbotsford air show Sunday.

Loaded on Martin Luther Way Friday and caught the Blue Angel performance right over head... Very cool.

Be sure to take pics at Abbotsford.

a reply to: Zaphod58

Got an e-mail from the "draken guy" today.........

The picture shows part of the front landing gear. There he is holding is one of the struts that support the shock absorber in extended position. In the center of the image view you can see the locking mechanism that secures the landing gear in the retracted position. Behind the lock sitting connection for electric units in two versions depending on the type of heater that is used during engine startup.
