Howdy folks,
So, wanted to share some tidbits of my last conversation with dad (Lowell) , about 36 hours before he passed on March 2nd.
He so-loved to silly season, and feeding on any rumors that would circulate. Thinking back over these last couple weeks, he sure would have enjoyed all the hype!
During that last talk, I was questioning him in regards to a certain Yak, which some years ago was fitted with a Merlin. The aircraft was listed in various places for sale, and the last I've heard of it. Anyone else have info on this one? Can't say it's a real practical conversion, but nevertheless, would be a hoot.
We also discussed the 5 Mustangs that have won Reno Gold, with stock canopies. Should be a pretty easy one for most of you to figure...
Wouldn't it be awesome if the 4 surviving (of the 5) could be in attendance? I mean, It's not that far fetched! I haven't noticed if 68C is back in the air or not?
