keep up that thought today i have mostely worked on the Ju 88 trimtab systems.. just the main box has taken a whole day to take apart and put back togheter in working condition. and the rods and those #"¤% conections are up next..they are timeconsuming
Hells bells GF, move the museum here and I will sweep floors and dust aircraft. Just to be close to some of the aircraft in your museum would be a privilege.

Ahhh come on, with that many aircraft you should be able to transport the musuem any where around the world. The hard part is getting them in the air and back down in one piece.

hehe

weeeeeeeeeeeel..many of the birds are flyers.. but we dont fly them as they are national heritage and are destined to be preserved for the future

latest work on the Ju 88 stab. done by a proffesional metalsheet worker. the leading edge was a "total loss " before he started on it..also the stringers inside ( note before and after )
its good to have a magician with us on this project
