Hmm, perhaps not since I finally hang up my full scale spurs and set my trusted old Fournier free to roam greener pastures up in Oregon about four years ago.

Surely lots of pooped out Heavies do come here to die and it is fascinating to watch them become smaller and smaller under the guillitene (spelling) in just a few days just as the Dragon and its Tail (B-24) and so many others in the late Forties did.

Did Spend a pleasant morning at the field last week when a three man crew from down under who were all modelers and flyers as well came over to check us out. They were waiting for the installation of airworthy engines in one of those DLE ships for the long ferry flight back half way around the world.
