    Hey Truck, use to follow you quite a bit on Customfighters, great to see you on here. You always had some of the most creative and unique projects going anywhere, I really look forward to following your exploits again.

    Above 1200 Sq/FT Restored 1930's Auto Shop

    The business has changed for sure. I also remember the fun 'ol days of VOR, NDB, LORAN C, and even those funky Course Line Computers. In the present even the most basic trainers have dual GPS. Nowadays if the FMS can't do it for us, most guys think they should declare an emergency. All this...

    Above 1200 Sq/FT Restored 1930's Auto Shop

    BB767, I'll add to massive group of followers in thanking you for allowing us to watch your work. As I was reading through all 376 pages (yikes!), over the last few weeks, I may have missed it but I didn't see the conclusion of the 8 month saga on the top for your Corvette. Definitely...

    My Build: Simply a Mr. Jack Olsen inspired 1930 Auto Bunker House Geobarn Homage

    Shaun, I helped build a second prototype of the Glass Goose, built by a company in the north Dallas area called Quikkit. All composite, two place, biplane, amphibian with a pusher Subaru and later IO-360, I believe. It was an odd one and looks like there is still a website for it but not very...

    My Build: Simply a Mr. Jack Olsen inspired 1930 Auto Bunker House Geobarn Homage

    Shaun, That all makes perfect sense to me. It looks like a great project. I fell in love with the Pitts Model 12 when it was on the cover of Sport Aviation back in July '99. Something about a round engine biplane coupled with a little more modern lines really appealed to me and I would like...

    My Build: Simply a Mr. Jack Olsen inspired 1930 Auto Bunker House Geobarn Homage

    Haha.....it has been a while since I heard that Dustoff quote! I never got to involved in the great "whose airframe is better" debate but that one always got the other guys fired up. Do you mind letting out which biplane kit you are picking up? Perfect way to spend the winter.

    Between 265 & 485 SQ/FT 1950s Craftsman Garage retro remodel

    Just finished reading your whole thread....spread out over a few nights thank goodness. Awesome stuff, really inspiring! For some reason most of your new pictures for the last 30-40 pages stopped showing up, but all the older ones before about a year ago are still good. Keep it up the great...

    My Build: Simply a Mr. Jack Olsen inspired 1930 Auto Bunker House Geobarn Homage

    Shaun, This is my first post (even put up a special avatar for you) but I just read through this entire thread of chaos and wanted to say congratulations to you and your wife on the great family and the new chapter in life. I was a Dustoff guy my whole time with the 82nd and RIP'ed out with a...
