Thread Of Positive Awesomeness

I'm thinking about an engine upgrade. Maybe this one?

 

Best shade tree ever!

 

I'd like to hear it fire off!

 

Rainbow over Seaham Harbour this morning.

 

So . . . as a tradition when I retired from the Air Force my buddies made me a "shadow box" -a wall display with a flag, my rank, ribbons, etc. as a gift. Well, when I departed my previous home situation under duress I didn't get out with it. That was ten years ago and I have almost nothing of my military "stuff".

Last night my lovely bride gave me this -her and an old military buddy designed it down to the last ribbon as they were worn on my uniform then they had it made (I don't know where). Needless to say I had plenty of dirt in my eyes.

 

Great gift. Just as importantly very thoughtful.

 

Brilliant

 

Love that - and LOVE the picture of the 'flying gun'!

Nice one.

 

It was a joy to work on and I still love to watch it do its thing via YT videos, Adie P.

 

Great stuff @JtC memories of work and buddies you can treasure, it's Great to keep all the old memories alive.

 

.Daughter got me these as gifts.Stupid phone see y’all Monday

Nice BSA. The placard says the old fellow rode it regular. Note: Not one, but four pans catching the BSA droppings. You would have thought they would have drained the poor thing for display. Perhaps their experience with vintage airplanes makes them think it's normal.
