Hi Jimmy,
I know you are the kind that stops in the middle of a sentance and looks up every time an airplane flys over. Most airplane nuts are. Some become pilots, others head for working on the things....BUT....everyone of us cranes our necks in wonder and stares when a plane goes by on a trailer. Sometimes its a poor veterean of the air that didn't land so well, other times its just a lost angel waiting to be found in a barn or garage. Always, we wish we weren't doing what we were doing, and were helping this poor bird instead.
Its a lifelong dream to help recover a damagerd plane, no matter what was to happen to it in the end, and yesterday I realized that dream! Our aeronatics class got its hands on a Piper that had trouble at Big Bear Lake a few years ago, and has been sitting forlornly ever since. Through the work of one of our great instructors, things finally fell in place.
We wandered up with a surburban and my big ugly truck, Apollo. The other truck had a borrowed trailer and the pla was to toss the smaller stuff in my truck to keep the weight down on the tralered portion.
***Things to do, have to finish this later***
