DutyCat Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Very nice. Very organized fellow. Look at that bookcase behind him....and are those some Jepp binders there? He must have become a pilot at some point. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flyingfortress Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 You have no clue how organized he is! Even my wife was amazed at his "scrapbook" he put together of his war years. Names,places and dates and a story behind every single photo. The man is a living, breathing History Channel 4 hour special presentation! The photo was actually taken at his daughters house whose husband is a pilot. I got an hour long tutorial on a pilot finds his way from point A to point B using IFR, I was lost right after he said: :Here's how we do it." Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sean, WELL DONE you..good job EXCELLENT build and one very happy jolly looking gentleman. Mr. Frank GACA looks delighted with your build Sean and he certainly is very neat and organized. In fact that is the first thing I saw. Your GATO submarine looks SPLENDIFEROUS ..SUPERB. I also noticed he had a statue with scales of Justice And Sean having seen your photo are you sure you and Frank are not brothers! Way to go Sean .keep up the good work! HOLMES Edit:typing error.

Flyingfortress Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 Thanks, guys! The beast is over 4 1/2 feet long and the wife rigged up a spray booth in the laundry room. It was a 16 hour long session to get the 3 shades of grey on. One day when I have 200.00 I can spend on myself, I'm getting one!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
