Congratulations !!! You'll love the 8. They're awesome. The paint job looks sweet too !!! Army Air Corps with invasion stripes? Post some paint job pictures if you get time please.
Congrats Bob! I'm about a year behind you and looking forward to the day when I get my pink slip. Looks like a sweet looking plane. I think we need some pics in the tail art section.
These are some pics I had on my phone from a while back. I'm not home this weekend, so this is the best I can do for now. The outside shot is from first engine start. I hope you like the paint job, I love it. Bob
