    Default Picture of your Miata with a P-51 Mustang?

    I'm just testing the water here.
    I am a volunteer at the Cavanaugh Air Museum in Addison and own a 92 proper red Miata.
    I have taken our motorcycle club to the museum for a discount tour and then pulled the P-51 out so everyone can park in front of it and take a picture of their motorcycle/car with the aircraft.
    Anyone interested?
    Best weekend?

    How's April 16th? (Apparently not so good, since the plane won't be there...)
    Maybe 4 wheels aren't so bad after all... wickett.org

    The P-51 is only my most favorite aircraft! YES! YES! YES! One request though... I work Saturdays from 12pm-6pm so Sunday would be better for me if possible. If not, can we make it early?

    FE Exam: Fundamentals of Engineering Exam. First step on the road towards a PE, or Professional Engineering license.

    Yeah, I could skip it, but since I've already paid my money to sit the exam, paid for a review class, and spent twenty hours a week studying for it for the past three months, I'm not going to.

    Default P-51 Miata visit date

    The museum will be at the Sun-N-Fly on April 16-17 weekend.
    My director is looking at dates from April 23/24 through mid-May to verify the 51 will be in house, etc.
    I'll post a target date as soon as we get it.
    BTW, it worked very well in the past if one great digital camera was on a tripod and each person brought their own camera and passed around while their car was staged. Any volunteers for the great digital/tripod?
    Thanks.

    Default Date still pending

    Kevin is still on the road (air show circuit) and will be back this coming Monday.
    I will contact him and post a new date then.
    Sorry for the delay.
