Well John, I was wondering what had happened to you. 
I knew if nothing was in your way you'd be there, but
but being sick just isn't worth pushing it to do
something.  Just take care and get well, we'll get the
flying machines cranked up again this weekend or
sometime during the week, weather permitting.

Thanks for the info on the P38.  That is how I will
approach this one.  I'll just try standard stuff
first, but I am intrigued by the prospect of doing
something on the main wing for all controls, just now
sure what effect that might have, not being an
aeronautic engineer.

The C130 shouldn't be to hard to fix.  The crash
wasn't to bad unless there is damage I did not see
initially.  It flies VERY well but it is not wind
friendly so it will have to be flown on very calm
days.

Get well, and we'll see you at the field.
