Jeff, My son and I were at that show. It was in our home town. Fantastic show!

Dave: Thanks, I'll pass the kind words on to Jerry. He was the guy doing most of the announcing.

I went to the first Corsairs show in 2005. Jerry arranged to get me a ride in "Panchito," the B-25 which was there again this year. The nose of a B-25 has got to be the best vantage point in the sky; it's like being in an airborne fishbowl.

Chuck, as a reporter 50 years ago I had a chance to buy a Mustang with zero-time pickled engine for $8,000. I didn't have the money to fly it at 90 gallons an hour but thought I could send it home to the barn as part of a pension plan. I cooled off and bought a Cessna 180 for $9,000. You lived a dream. I keep the juices jangling now with my 180hp Bushmaster experimental with McCauley 84/43 prop on 2250 floats. Regards, King

After a lot of drama, I finally made a video. There's a button to select the resolution down near the lower right corner. It has 360 as the default. I made it in 720dpi so you can go higher if you have a fast connection. Enjoy.

To the best of my knowledge Chuck, nobody has received a finished set yet... unless I'm just not in the loop.

Discouraging. But thanks Dean. I was counting on getting my 28" .410 barrels before next season. 'Seems like that's optimistic since they did say the .410 barrels would be the last run.
