We have a new Maserati dealer here in Alexandria, and it's real clear that they're "dumbing down" their cars to make them more affordable (so they can sell more I suppose).

Thanks for the great thread, a super treat, and hope you get to feeling a kind of fine and normal again real soon. :beer:

Ran across a relatively new video with a walk-around of a vintage Storch that is hangared in Florida. It's a little long I admit, but good content: https://youtu.be/8e8rwgm5sFs

You got to take the "Safety Nazis" with a grain of salt: - They ultimately mean well (+/-) It's just a real drag if somebody gets hurt where they didn't need to is all.

That is a pretty slick system: - How does it anchor to the roof rack? - And what is the allowable loading on the cantilever?

The engines AND the cars making up that train are remarkable, including that Presidential Pullman. When are we finally getting our RR forum, and what's the story behind that train!?

Meaning it was paid for, but never picked up?

That is sort of funny. It's got a turbo; it's not running a turbo, but its GOT one.

Considering what they are (genuine, and storage condition), that price doesn't seem too scary. And that's what they're worth. There is always the chance that the owner might let them go for even half that or something, who knows?

That's what you call magic elixir.

Rust-free, and TWO of them!? I'm sort of glad that they're out-of-reach there on the Left Coast, because if they were more available I just might be tempted to make an offer.

And you won prizes too. Congratulations. Looking good.

That's a LOT of snow for April. Is more coming?

The aircrews go where they are told: - And for that they're to be saluted. But I bet French Tahiti would be a whole lot more fun.

That's a lot of unexpected work you ran into there for sure. It's pretty clear that "plug-and-play" modular components were not part of the original design concept when that rig was on the drawing board.

I like the shot of working with the trim hammer.

"Throttle cable pulleys"; that's old school isn't it!? But who knows maybe actually MORE reliable that the latest fly-by-wire technology. Does anybody know?
