Keith,

Great pictures. The 195 is a great ship. Does it have the crosswind gear? I hope not. Great in theory, but lousy in parctice.

20 years ago I completely restored a Boeing Stearman, Different than the 195 in that the wings are made of wood, sort of like a giant model ariplane! And the Stearman is fabric covered. It had a P&W 985 c.i. 9 cylinder 450 h.p. 25 gph brute on it. Tons of fun and lots of noise. A Cobra in the sky!!

Looks like your Dad is getting down to the short strokes. Thanks for the views.

Bish.
