Hello Folks:

Here are some new photos of the inside of Chino's "Jack":

apparently, some of the museum's staff says it has corrosion, but inside the tail it doesn't look too bad.

I sure hope you got permission to post those! I know Ed is very particular about NOT making such photos public.

The spar caps have serious intergranular corrosion and the tires are from something else cut to size. Needs a little work to fly, but the engine still turns!
