Great stuff. You guys did it up right. That is cool that you had the WWII vets there. Looks like great fun. <S>

Edit: WOW I just read the stuff about the pilots! That is so cool. I liked the story about the pulse jet, that was funny. I can see the look on their faces when they saw the model engine. LOL! WOW that is really neat that you got to talk to those guys and share your interests with them. I hope you can keep in touch with them and tell us more. Keep up the good work and heavy drinking.   LOL! <S> Thank you!
