MustangPilot...the aircraft is flying well...smooth at 110 knots in cruise...the guns seem to draw a small bit of attention at fuel stops. Tell the guys in the hangar they did a good job on it...getting lots of compliments and ooh's and ahh's whenever folks look it over.

Today is Dhobie Day...have a week of exhaust soot and grease to get off the thing...adding the 129th tail markings, tail number and tail rotor warnings. Did the pilot doors and nose markings....looking pretty good so far.

The head dress and RPG's would definitely be an attention getter.

Maybe you could host a pprune bash at your place....show Whirlygig, Tall and Tasty....and the other regulars here your small collection of toys.

If offered Whirls...take him up on it....biplanes, helicopters, warbirds and jets hidden away in his toybox.
