    Two BA's about to be placed on the active list.

    Finally restored my AC-3 so I can start on the TR-3. Prognosis is good...works on most bands and sounds pretty good.

    The other BA is the Heathkit mobile twins I picked up at Deerfield. The Comanche is very much alive; might only need alignment.

    The TR-3 power requirements are very compatible with the Heathkits. Now...gotta restore the almost basket case DC-3 I got at the same time.

    A DC-3?? Man, that's quite a project. Those radial engines alone will take months...

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    At least the APU is operational.

    The Goony Bird! Great plane, I've ridden in two of them.

    Neither have I. Seen many many of the CD version, though.
