Very encouraging!
Everything is under snow again this morning after reaching 50 and raining all day yesterday.
Good casting weather anyway.

Here's what happened to one of the George AFB birds after it did a stint as a "plane on a stick" in from of Base Ops. The field is now a freight airport.

They hauled it off of the end of the tarmac and just left it to rot.

Cool pic, i was a crew chief and loved the F4, never flew in one but went on a high speed taxi check one time in the rear seat. Got to taxi it to the end of the run way at which time the pilot held the brakes and put it in after burner, then off we went, what a rush until we got to the end of the run way and the front of the plane started drifting back and forth :shock:
Thought we were goners but all it was when the drag chute deployed, scared me for a second though :lol:

Well it's starting to warm up here! After 4.5 months of sitting in the garage I finally got my old Camaro out today and took her for a short drive to get the juices going. (both the car's, and mine!)
