Flag on this play!! Please refer to the rule about un-names. 5 second penalty and loss of one turn. On another ruling, the judges have made the decision to not allow any foreign phrases or parts of words such as "snitzel" and therefore the previous entry using that suffix will only be accepted up to the point where this suffix begins. :-) It's good to be the King! That's what Mel Brooks said anyway!! The Un Mel Brooks, JR

The prize for the night is this A26 patch from SEA days. No, I mean the picture of it. Not the patch. I forget that some of you folks expect real ponies and real patches as prizes. Sorry, but not in our budget. The judges have conferred and wish to thank all the players. To those who identified our mystery part as a fuel pump or leaking fuel pump, you are correct technically speaking, howsomever, the rule said not to identify it correctly. Therefore, it has been decided that the Delorean stripe remover should take first place and second should go to thermonuclear detonator. It is actually a TFD6600-3 on one side and -2 for the other side of the bomb bay. Something else we gotta fix or replace. On the hunt for these as well. Seems like it is always something!! :-) Off to see the warbird parts dreamland where they have everything you want and for cheap!! Goodnight, JR

Rick, was this line from "Blazing Saddles"? Funny movie. Anyway, did the Huey make it up from Houston today? Hope the wx holds good for Heli-Expo. Can we expect a full report from you later?? :-) JR

O2Lady... of course, the part, not the girl. Wingman got a little off the subject as wingmen tend to do. That is why they have a lead to follow. But you knew this when you signed up for this outfit. Now about the part... the big wide smiley looking thing with dimples... again, not the girl. Try to keep focused here!! :-) JR

Since our A-26 was involved in the unpleasantness in Southeast Asia in the 1960's, it would be appropriate to revisit those days. For the real warbird fans, this video has it all from that era except for an A-26. This is because it was shot in and around Tan San Nhut AB near Saigon and the K's only worked from Thailand.
Saw a lot of airplanes: Beaver, Otter, Dornier Do-228, O-2, civvy 337, AC-47 Puff the Magic Dragon, H model Huey, H-34, Cessna U-3B Blue Canoes, AC-119, Helio Courier (Bare metal and a tail no, hmmm), Grumman C-1A COD, Dehavilland Heron, DC-3, 6, & 7, Caribou, 707, 727, 130’s, 123’s, B-57 Canberras, F-101 Voodoo, F-4, C-46, Beech 18, A-1H Skyraiders, C-133, C-141, and probably missed a few. And let’s not forget an actual recording of Adrian Kronauer, the DJ made even more famous in the great Robin Williams movie about him, "Good Morning, Viet Nam!" Some great tunes in this too. Turn it up and go full screen. If you are sharp, you will be even able to answer that long asked question of "who dat?". It is all here in 7 and half minutes!! A special treat for everybody tonight!! JR
