Oscar Duck, what is the tail number of the 340 that your are picking up? I used to work in the records dept at Eagle and had about 15 340's I kept the files for.

Cheers,

Lynn

Nashville,

The only thing I remember from there was a Tallichet rest. with its signature, beat up C-47 in the back yard.

Mmmm, Key Lime Pie, with a Lorna Doone Crust!

O/D, thanks, I remember that one but not one of mine. I kept the books for 340, ATR72's, the engine for the 72's and the nose wheel tires for the 340's. All for about $8 an hour. No, I don't work for them anymore , yeah, as I have been aviating ever since.

Cheers,

Lynn
