I just get home from work at 7-30am and you send me straight back to the office. Yes Paul, this what I do for a living. lol.. Wow these are excellent buddy. We have all kinds of posters on the walls and these would put some of them to shame especially the second one. Brilliant job Paul.

Dave.

Thanks dave. You're a very kind man. The reason I took my camera to work is there is a F-86 sabre in town. He came to yesterday but no camera. It was going to come to our apron today to get fuel. He had maintenance issues and went to a hanger on the other side of the airport.

What a shame Paul that F-86 Sabre is an awesome machine. Good Luck if you get a chance.
