Good on ya, lads….he’ll be thrilled….be sure to mark the box ‘extremely fragile’ so’s they don’t shake it up too much.

“A small unfortunate incident in Colorado,” AIB? DO tell more…?

Yeah you could buy this plane (nice as it is)….or a TBM or T-6!

No, the photo I saw was just planes, it was from the front and above/left side, mostly just of our little Hawk but you could see bits and pieces of other planes in the background, if I recall…but no people…

I drive Jeep….have for years now. Love the option of turning off the established road and heading up some dirt road/4 wheel drive road that 2 wheel drive cars can’t follow me up, get away from the crowd and go camping or fishing….also love taking the top off in the summer and letting the wind blow through the vehicle…the blue Jeep below, ‘Ridge Runner’, is my Jeep CJ-5 I sold last spring (a guy bought it and restored it, have yet to see it in it’s new condition), and yes it was named after Dan Martin’s P-51 Mustang out in California of the same name (could’nt find a good Corsair name to transfer to it)….the next is of my present Jeep, a red Wrangler which just had it’s French Peugeot Tranny rebuilt and has been running like a top since then, but needs the 4 wheeling system fixed (but will still go offroad most places other Jeeps will go), it’s lifted about 4 inches and has good clearance…

Great vehicles, Jeeps….would love to find an old CJ-2A somewhere and do that one up…

In the new issue of “Air Classics’ there is a photo of the plane in service with the French, on an airfield surrounded by others of it’s type, apparently the only photo of it that exists from the WWII period, or so the caption said….
