The air and space museum has a Tiffie now ? It was not there last I went, dammit !!! My favorite plane of all time, the ancestor to the A10 - ugly but so pretty...

Edit: come to think of it last I went the A&S was closed on the mall, and we went to the annex an hour away in VA. Still was pretty nice!

Behold... Oratex!

Walking thru the local swap meet and I see this model of this NGC Product, ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_Grumman_Firebird )
I worked on the real thing more 15 years ago,the guy wanted $50 for it, Knowing the model shop costs at the time it was constructed, it probably cost 3- 5 K to build it for one of the PM's

No I did not buy it

Wait, what...? You're doing the walk around? Nice! My kinda Captain!

Just got back from Airbus recurrent. Good for one more year!

I find this intriguing. But I'll leave it at that.

I'm still learning to caress thin aluminum into airplane shapes.
My construction background, where everything is "GO! GO! HURRY!" has kept my pile of scrap aluminum growing.
