There was a thread some time ago about how many Lake Birds
remain in storage in P'cola. At the time I said two. I was there
today for the first time in quite a while. There are three SBDs
remaining.

Thanks Owen. How is restoration going on the most recent planes pulled up from Lake Michigan?

I believe all work was stopped due to health & safety considerations in the resto hangar. This is being remedied but has/is taking some time, and a mountain of paperwork.
