Roo, You could join the CAF and become a crew member on "FIFI" or "Ol 927. You could campaign at every stop they make on their tours.

We are planning for a big weekend over the 4th of July.  "FIFI" will be at the Vintage Flight Museum in Fort Worth all weekend for Tours and Rides.  Ol'927 will be at Addison Airport at the Cavanaugh Museum Of Flight for tours and maybe rides, if they get #1 Engine installed. I plan on being at Fort Worth that weekend, helping the Squadron in some capacity.

To me the difference between a radial and a jet is like the difference between BP and smokiless. WM

I hope we have a good turn out for our festivities over the 4th of July weekend at Addison and Fort Worth. It will be hot and I plan on staying cool. I'm packing my cooler with plenty of water. I have gotten aquanited with the crew chief of "FIFI" over last couple of months. He really appreciated my donation of the Texas flag to be displayed on the recent tour.

I know it will be a hot weekend over the 4th. I'm packing a lot of bottled water for the trip to Fort Worth. I hope we have a big turnout for the weekend. We've got a nice WW2 Museum at VFM and there will be at least 3 WW2 aircraft there.  "FIFI" our B29, and a privately owned C47 and B25.

this one didn't cost as much as the Bomber, but it was another perfect landing just the same.
