    --> Tailwind-List message posted by: RJ <gatsby8898@yahoo.com> Louis, Dennis, Calby, Dallas, I still have my O&R 23 that my Dad gave me for Christmas in 1947. I was a control line kid though. I asked for a model airplane engine or an electric train. After a great career of flying, I'm glad he didn't get me the electric train. --- Louis Owen <owenld@earthlink.net> wrote: > How does 75 years sound with chewing dope, rubber > escapements.

    --> Tailwind-List message posted by: Richard Lamb <n6228l@earthlink.net> Jim, I was looking at that photo of the windshield and wondering.... Since you know that's where you want the windshield, make the firewall an inch higher and run the tube at the bottom of the side panel at a slight angle to match? (That's the tube from the front corner of the door post to the firewall.) Same shape, no secondary structure? Richard (still making trouble)

    Subject: In the soup, southern KY
    Bob: I snapped a few pix today; it looks like IFR out the right window, but on the other side it looks right. The sun washes over 32 year old Cessna 150 windows in funny ways sometimes I guess. The windshield has to have been replaced because you really can't see out the back window it is so hazy. No more 150 pictures-the next flying pictures you get from me will be from a Tailwind. it may take a while. -Danny
