Just wondering how bad it really is. I can't tell from the gearwell pic what's corrosion and what's bird droppings. Sure would be a shame to see yet another airframe chopped up. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PARTS-680F-AERO-COMMANDER-COMPLETE-SUPER-CHEAP_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ63678QQihZ001QQitemZ110282269165QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 05:51:47 AM PST US From: "Bill Hamilton" Subject: RE: Commander-List: Heavy lifter Folks, This clip has recently generated a lot of comment. The video was taken from the tower in Canberra, the Australian capital; it was on charter to an Australian operator, doing military lift for the Australian Department of Defence. The performance displayed is typical of first generation jets, I can well remember getting airborne in a B707-320, and not hearing the click of the gear lever unlock solenoid (meaning the main gear squat switches had just released after the weight had come off the gear) until the "piano keys" had passed my peripheral vision. There is much less to this than meets the eye.

When you got to then end of the runway and it smelled dirt we rotated. That plane was designed for a max gross weight of 125,000 pounds, we were flying them at 221,000 and the 509th was flying them at 225,000 with the pods.
