Its amazing how a coat of paint and a snazzy modern engine can turn the old Stoneboat into a thing of beauty. I like those big windows, too.

Is that what you do, Rudderbug? At least its not dark!

Some people are like slinkies, they serve no purpose, other than to make you smile when you push them down the stairs.

This has gotta be the greatest thread on any aviation board anywhere on the net. :smt023

Adam Oke, I did my float endorsemant on LHM IN 1966 and flew it for a season on fire patrol. Good to see it's still around.
