Brave wings.

Just read the F-117 retired, stripped, placed in museum setting with Blackbird. No doubt the F-22 is its successor. The retired Chief Scientist of the Air Force had us up over the last decade to work on his home, the impressive touch being the chrome F-22 on walnut with engraved plaque--he was no more retired than some of the airframes.

Sam, your tag calls to mind Stephen Coonts' Flight of the Intruder wherein Jake Grafton recounts LBJ's lament he was like the desperate applicant for the small-town teaching position queried by the school board member, "Do you believe the earth is round or flat?" and replying helpfully, "I can teach it either way."

One tech on some Los Alamos black projects reported tests run on a plane which videos the sky above it and projects the picture on its lower surface.

Greeting s y’all, I missed the orginal ping somehow so thanks Phil for the ping. Them pics remind me of my college days, sigh...

Not much to report from KC, been busier than a one armed paper hanger at work. No major projects are on the schedule for this year but have plenty of smaller ones.

We were suppose to make a trip out to D.C. in a few weeks with alfa6 SR but his back is bothering him so maybe in May we can make one.

Y’all take care and glad that the trrip went well for all

Regards
