Jim Read's Corsair will be a no-show. The motor broke while at Mt. Comfort.

Looking forward to seeing you too, Alan! What time will you arrive at DTW on Thursday? I may be at the gate (I work for Mesaba) in the morning. I had mentioned on the 'WIX gatherings' board that we were looking into setting up a small tent (supplied by Dave Virant-'Racer-57') for use by the WIX folks on or near the crowd line. I didn't get any reponses. Is anyone at all interested in this idea? If not, I'll shelve it. So far on the ramp at Willow Run are:
two Wildcats
two TBMs
Thunderbird B-17
Super Catalina
Beech-18
T-6
Helldiver
P-47
....More to arrive today!

Jim

I think a tent would be most welcome. I believe acquisition trouble and expense is what caused a damper before. However if the tent is a loaner that sounds great.

I think I'll drive up there for the Saturday show, depending on the weather.


Hey Brad,

If you are going to go for sure, I could bring your Rawdon canopy frame over for you since I will be there on Saturday too. (That is, if you have something big enough to haul it back in.)

Let me know ASAP if this would help you out. I would be happy to do it for you.

Steve :wink:
