Summer time, the BEST time of the year in the Northwest, dry and blue.
Here the team went on a road trip to Tucson, AZ. I spent most of the time surviving the heat at the bone yard, here is Nick my trusty nephew, we moved from shade to shade spot to survive the 100F jet blasted desert in June! This huge airplane was similar to the original Flight of the Phenix movie, they flew out on one of the booms! I think PanAm pilot Paul Mantz died making that movie.
This is our Customer Julie of McCune Aviation LLC leading a tour group through the BIOSPHERE just north of Tucson, I went kicking and screaming from the airplanes but definitely the best part of our trip.
Jack showing his stabilizer.
Our tiger Max guarding the shop.
Danny helping me rebuild the aft wall of the front cockpit. Putting shoulder belt recoil mounts in. He is a wizard when it comes to fabrication.
This is 49-1495, the oldest T-28, located at the Boeing Museum restoration shop in Everett, WA.
Chris Zimmer, lives next door to the Boeing restoration shop, with his 1300 pound A model QEC package on the dining room table.
