We had one land here from the Carrington Foundation a few years back, for $7
you could climb in at crawl through.  Gee, those pilots and crew must have
been small-framed.  When they taxied to take off we were so close to the
plane one the taxiway I could have taken one step forward and touched the
wing tip.  What a take-off rush it was to watch it go.

I accidentally stumbled upon his place at the airport in Middlesboro,
Kentucky.  Got to meet him, see the plane; and he showed us the video and
answered all our questions.  Very nice fellow.  If he maintains his cars to
the standard of that airplane - whoo!
