Galazan Repro Barrels

[Feathersjr]

Correction to my last response. I received an email tonight stating that at the first of 2011 Simmons will be producing 00 frame 28 gauge barrels and they are now taking orders at a price of $2800 . Barrel lenghts up to 32" in 28 gauge.

Chuck:

What a great time you had in those Mustangs. I'm not a pilot, just a long time wannabe and namesake of an uncle who was killed over Italy while flying a recon mision in a P-51. I have a brother who is a pilot and true propeller head and who regularly puts together airshows; most recent was a Corsair show in Connecticut. He likely knows about the folks you flew with, but if not it'll give him a wonderful goal.

Glad to hear that Simmons is still doing barrels... they gave me no indication of ceasing.

Best to all!

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.
