Happy Birthday, Jack;
But, apparently (above), you are taking that "Still kicking butt, and taking names" part of growing older, with too much enthusiasm. :D

Jack,

We printed a copy of the pony picture and sat down at Gary's office desk to cut it out....... :D When the mood hit me I "cut and pasted" the two pictures together.

After the end of the 2007 season, when they set the airplane on its a$$, Gary taped that picture on the repair area when I came down to start the repair. We got a pretty good laugh out of it at the time!

Happy belated birthday! Hope you had a great day!

Look on the bright side: A melonoma taken out of your arm has got to be better than having a hemorrhoid taken out of your behind!

Hey Jack! Happy B-Day, belated.

I am the one who got some pics from you that belonged to a P-40 pilot who flew in the Philippines in 1941-42. I spent 15 yrs writing veterans who fought in the Philippines 1941-42. Most have gone west now including my good friend Lt. General Joe Moore, a real unsung American hero.

Been working on my flying P-40 replica off and on over the last 6 yrs. Its a huge project and, in the meantime, have been enjoying building static display replicas. Am a few months away from finishing a full size P-40E at the moment. My next static project may be a Curtiss YP-37 and I have been looking for pics, manuals, and drawing copies for the YP-37. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. Also looking for a G.E. B series turbo.

All the best!

Jack
