Well, I am going to the Tulsa airport tomorrow (flying to Philly for the
week) but won't have time to swing by the CAF hangar. Actually, I think
it's at Riverside Airport (on the south side of Tulsa) anyway. One of our
local pilots has a beautifully restored L-3. Next time I see THAT one I'll
take some pictures...
I've been spending my spare time working on the Piet cowling and some engine
mount stuff but will gladly go take some pics when I'm NOT working on the
Piet! :-)
