I've seen many such planes in Frank's shop but these are the first I took the time to snap a couple of photos. Frank had a unique project a couple of years ago that he built for an elderly gentleman. I wish I would have gotten some photos of the build. Frank keeps promising me a ride but so far I haven't collected.

Taking pictures of war birds because they're cool is the sure sign of an Aviation Enthusiast, talking about Bonanzas for hours on end in fish camp is the sure sign of an Aviation Enthusiast, making over 8000 posts on BT is a sure sign of an Aviation Enthusiast, need I go on?
Rick, you ARE an Aviation Enthusiast!

Doug, you're killing me!  I have the rating but that's just a few days of fun flying that sets you up to spend even more money on aviation. I would have something if I could just find that perfect partner in TVC area. Hint, hint!!!
