OK, Nobody could guess what I was referring to. The Warhawk Museum P-51C "The Boise Bee" took to the skies Sept. 29 in the capable hands of John Maloney. A few problems to work out but it is back in the air.

It's not that we didn't know what you were referring to Don. Rather, you're just a tad late with the news!

I don't know how I missed that thread. I was wondering why there was no news on it.
