Careful here Frank, I think this could be a wolf in sheep's clothing. He could have been part of the devious plot to Punk Mr. Hempel with the banged up Grasshopper!!!

Me thinks he can fly already too!!!

I would just like to point out that I still don't know how to fly... take offs are optional... we put'em up and hope they come down in the same number of parts.

Update on my gaggle of warbirds...
The captured P-47 has been restored to flight worthiness
The Zero has a new set of retract trunions (the original set is going to Down and Locked to try their conversion)
The FW190 has a new starter motor and gearing plus a new Sprague gear (I love the electric starters)
The new spinners from Mick Reeves arrived and I did a really bad job cutting them up for the props... one for the big 28X10 2blade and one for the 24X12 3blade...I've got to find a 6inch long 5mm oval head machine screw for them...

As for new members... Gents (insert drum roll here)... Welcome colesifer3d314, you are #25... may all your Warbirds go really fast and turn left (or right) depending if you're a ambi-turner...

Sparky,

I'll take 2 in 4x. Will you be able to ship or is this available for local pick up?

Hi Frank you can add a large for me along with the ones for Shane and Paul, you might also want to consider adding Cole's to that shipment also.

It's blank on the front... no text or image... I just spoke with AlliedShirts.com customer support and they're giving me a link so everyone can order the shirts (just like the one above) directly and it'll ship straight to you...

more to follow

Sorry for the delay gents, I had a order snafu and they sent the shirts in black so I returned them and asked them to send me a link so you can order them directly...

http://www.alliedshirts.com/designer?cp=7630456C6B744D373830615A78695657314536 6B58513D3D&pcode=50766455626D7A556B325254532F4D2B6D7A2B656E77 6B52584B4461426B4B38

click on the link... specify your size and it'll ship directly to you... remember to click on the back of the shirt to verify it's got writing on it w/ the A10 image...
