B-17 Update...

Postby Brett_Henderson » Fri Feb 09, 2007 10:07 pm

I had to shuttle a pilot down to Hillsboro today and took a detour via Urbana on the way back. Had lunch at my favorite airport diner and stopped in for another visit to check on the B-17 (I think this is my 4th post about it).

It's starting to take shape !

My plan is to keep going in every month or so... Get to know everyone... and eventually dedicate whole days to helping. I can sweep floors, run errands or even pop and finish rivets, whatever they need...

If that nets me a ride, all the better...   :)  If not, it'll be that much more special the day it flies (I  W I L L  be there)..
