Thanks Barry for your kind words about Bonnie, I only wished see was as nice as your F-84. I will also have to side with Terry about B Bs Bear If the reast of them had spent that much time and effort into building such a beast then thay could have flown it when and were thay so chose !! The last flyin before bomber feild in which I had Flown Bonnie was Texarkanas and thay gave the best warbird to a sopwith pup which lost something off of it on every flight. Thay said that since it had flown on both days and I had only flown on saterday that that was the reason it won !! I told them that when thay cut It !! Built It !! and Finnished It then thay could dictate when it could be flown !! Then I reminded them what really P. O. Me was the fact that the Big Bird Fun Fly thay had Sactioned the Big Bird Was only for Saturday and open flying on sunday. I also Knew that the way the wind was blowing on sunday across the lake and over the dam, that their was now way i would risk flying her !! I imagine B B felt the same way on Sunday.
Those plaque's Look good on da wall But Bringing an airplane home in one piece FEELS 100 times better !!
