Stops look great. Did you machine those, or get them "off the shelf"?

We should get some Finns involved here, they can be pretty good with languages! My kids went to school locally with the kids from an ex-pat family here from Finland. The Dad told me everybody in Finalnd learns at least (4) languages for their primary education: - Ancient Finnish -...

Nothing earth-shattering, Commandcar34 was just translating the Instructions form Post #116: - from English into French That's all it is, but plenty useful to some!

Entendu. Très bien!

I get it. I used to like war films, too, as a kid. But now, films about killing? I don't care for them anymore. I like the MV hardware, though. Go figure.

That looks like authentic WWII-era footage. But the flying is awfully close to reckless (so maybe NOT authorized "official" footage). Wonder what the story is behind the film clip?

"Overbuilt" will hardly ever cause a problem. But, "Underbuilt"? That there is a whole other story.

When you do a thing, you do it right! My hat's off to you, Bradyrw625.

This just got a whole lot more interesting... Wonder if anybody else might want the deal?

That turned out excellent, nice work!!

Phew! Thanks, Frank8003, that's a relief. I was just about to drop into a wheelchair and just STAY there...

Only (2) P-3 Orions still flying?! You get old, but never notice it until the surprises like this jolt you into the reality. Yikes!! Time to pack for the trip out...

Now, THERE'S a "Jeopardy" game show question that would stump 'em all!!

It sure looks good. On another topic, I noticed your martime "fleet" in the background: - Where's the boating in AZ, you near a Big Old Dam or something?!

Oh, Man, I was hoping to drop in on the Rally this year! But fell off the thread or something, and everything's inside-out this year with the Covid anyway. Maybe I'll pull it off next year. The weather looks like it was great. Was it hot up there?

It's a fun mix. Seems like Russia should be included, too, but I guess that's a long story (and a bit complex and testy), isn't it?

ColdWarrior and I share the same curiosity, so another thanks here to you, Frank8003. I read somewhere once that the manufacturing plants in Witchita (almost dead-center in the state of Kansas), were considered ideal (if not actually developed there purposefully). Being almost exactly in the...

Thanks for the vid, Tracer. Excellent! Just learned that developing the B-29 was the most expensive U.S war project of WWII (outspent the Manhattan Project even, apparently). Pretty amazing that the B-17 started the war (developed sometime in the 30's if I recall it right, 1939?), and the B-29...

It all sure looks pretty. The mounting "tape" must be a specialty item, where did you get that?

Looks expensive to maintain. Maybe you all should give up the military hardware and just stick with the Lies-and-Laptops. It's working pretty good, right?
