After 47 years in its cocoon, the "ugly duckling" has emerged, alive and vibrant. She waddles like a duck. Her quack is still a bit shaky. But she's learning once again to spread her wings and FLY ! ! ! I render my most humble salute to ALL who have invested so much time, energy, talent... and...

An SS Member by the username CARNAC WAS able to search the US Army's MV Data Base and provide VIN Info to members, asking only a donation to the Wound Warriors Project. in return. UNFORTUNATELY for all of us, he has recently retired (with our most sincere congratulations) and no longer has...

You're welcome. He was the same pilot that described his first solo instrument landing. Clouds were on the deck, his instruments looked good. gradually descended below 100 ft above the ground. He was perfectly centered on the runway, but it was 80 ft long and 4800 ft wide!!!!!!! OOPS !

DC-10 trying to save the high school in Chelan WA

I was hoping this post would prompt some relevant MV Safety discussions and maybe even some True Horror Story submissions (with Pics??). There are some experiences that others can learn from. Some are even survived for first-person accounts.

I have been an avid follower of this thread and privileged to be included in many text messages. I hold papabear and zout in high esteem for their dedication to the funding and restoration of this K-18's resurrection. They have and surely will continue to pour into this project with unwavering...
