Ready to go at hometown Rochester Airport. Wish the grass at the house looked that good.

This was deluxe for the early sixties. An instrument in every hole, genuine naugahyde upholstery and quality carpeting.

Enroute to - looks like our State Capitol, Olympia. First set of vasi boxes I spotted.

On a wide base for Olympia Regional (KOLM) runway 35.

The mind is like a parachute...it only works when it's open.

For a second there, I thought I had accidentally clicked on the photo section. Great shots Dave.

Now for the more important part. Where did you get the bird? I love that livery.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

The good news, the livery is freeware - c140newblue.zip - believe on FlightSim. The bad news is the 140 is payware, not terrific but it's the only one for FSX - www.simflight3D.com Had to have it - that was my first and I learned to fly in it.

Think I'm over budget for payware right now. Might have to wait a while. I could always try to duplicate the livery on my 150 Aerobat though. Wink
