Lovely

The world needs a few more restored vintage prop liners

Great Job

Is there any page on the web with pictures from the restoartion? The historical flight foundation page and google did not help. Most homebuilders produce excellent log pages of their projects these days with thousands of pics, is anything like this available for historic aircraft restoration ?

Is that the only flying DC-7 series aircraft ??

No, Butler still has two tankers on contract to Orgeon state, N838D and N401US. Carlos has another DC-7 N381AA.

Hope it turns up at Oshkosh. It was due last year. I went, it didn't.

Volume, I think you'll find Carlos is far too busy making a quid and working to sit down at a computer for too long!

G'day
