December 30, 20205 yr Disgraceful! Treating faithful servants like that. Old planes matter. The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA
December 31, 20205 yr I agree with the sentiment, Ron. However the excavator operator was only following orders with a bit of artistic interpretation - I very much doubt he was the guy who decided to scrap the planes in the first place.

I'd sooner blow that amount of cash on a piece of RC constrction plant... and take longer to dig out whatever you'd need the backhoe for https://rclesu.com/index.php?c=content&a=show&id=440 Actually IRL I'd use the cash more wisely - replacement car, pay off some bills etc. Mark Robinson Part-time Ferroequinologist Author of FLIGHT: A near-future short story (ebook available on amazon) I made the baby cry - A2A Simulations L-049 Constellation Sky Simulations MD-11 V2.2 Pilot.
