Yikes...I thought that photos were probably lost in the mail. As you can see, my photo work and camera arn't the best. I have always appreciated your expertise and willingness to print all the photos sent your way. The WIX family of contributors have certainly added much to the history of military aviation and I check on the site several times each day. Once again, thank you Chris for listing the photos...
