Hi Guys:

I made it to Indonesia in one piece. I'm now in Manado, and it's an awesome place! Indonesia rivals to Hawaii in beauty. The people are really nice! They make us Americans look like brutes. No nasty terrorists or anything like that, the news media really plays on people's fears..

Anyway, I didn't see any A-26s at Manado airport yet, but will let you all know if there is anything.

Chris

Chris -

If you run across any Mustangs on display -- especially the tall-tail variety like I'm interested in -- please take photos!!

Have fun over there, and be safe!

Well done Chris , have fun.

But before you take any photos near military installations thereabouts, make sure you have permission! It may just be an old plane on a pole , but you'll meet 'jobsworth' types even in the tropics.

Oh and don't relax your guard , just stay frosty and situationally aware.

Apart from that , enjoy and get hunting fella!

Regards

Tony
