RE: BVM T-33 Build
While I am impressed that you offered to bring your own refreshments Dave, as a host, I promise you will be taken well care of. I have a fridge in my workshop. As for the color scheme, I have chosen the Canadian silver 261 as my choice. Not only do I love the scheme, but my dad flew 266 a few times, so it seemed very fitting to go with this one. 261 was beautifully restored, but unfortunately it hit a tree on takeoff and was lost. The pilots were ok, but not a very happy ending. Please remind me on maiden to ensure all trees are removed from the flight path.
