From Ken Ramsay:
Reminder, next Saturday will be clean-up morning.
-
- Repair of the Drake’s keel keeps moving along. I don’t think I’ve seen that many clecos in one place before. This photo shows the new center piece (silver) that John and Ken O. made for the repair.
-
- Aft looking forward of the repair area.
-
- Four more sparrow missiles are being planned so we have a bunch of Sparrow fins in the works.
-
- Right side of the F-102 is nearing completion. Still lots of sanding is needed.
-
- And Dan finished the tail cone for the new drop tank. The second cone is in progress.
-
- Made some progress on the F-102’s elevon or flaperon or what ever it is called. Will trial fit the mount structure (long thin piece in photo) on Wednesday.
-
- A new aircraft has arrived. I don’t have the story yet, stay tuned.
-
- This is an artists rendition of the new hanger we are planning. Twice the size of our current hanger.
-
- With Kent’s blessing, Paul finished installing the remaining ribs on the F-105’s stabilizer. Fabricating the skin is next.
-
- The crew is making support structure for the Corsair. It needs to be raised up so wing structure can be planned.
-
- And the skinning of the other horizontal stabilizer has begun.
-
- The OV-1 now has engines and no longer needs a tail brace.
