Any Body Else From Se All In

[Folks]

Ok, SouthHaven of Hernado. Welcome Geordie97.

Are you all in yet?
I'm on my way to a tint and body wrap place to see what a wrap will cost me. I plan on going all in today. I count this as a timeless and fun vehicle so I'm reaching way back into the Golden age of flight with the idea of wrapping a silver Elio with the attached color scheme. Hope this is not too far out for your taste. LOL

Nice picture. Always loved Curtis aircraft. Built a model of that plane back in the early 60's, but can't recall it's name. Love the colors!

Close but it's a Grumman F3F Navy carrier fighter. Fore runner of the WildCat. Robert Taylor starred in "Flight Commander" in 1940 flying the last of the biplane Navy. The reason the Navy was slow to adopt a monoplanes is that Naval Air operations required strong tough aircraft for those rough carrier deck landings plus the strain of the catapult take offs. However Grumman was just the Company to build the first monoplane tough enough for carrier duty with the F4F wildcat. Naval Aeronautics just prior to WWII was the golden coming of age of Flight in my opinion. We had the finest Navy in the World at that time and little did we know our bliss was to be crushed by the Jap Zero. Every pilot that climbed into a Buffalo or Wildcat during the Battle of Midway knew full well they had no chance against the Zero. It was sheer suicide.

Hey Gal! Just went back and corrected that spelling. I hate when these things "rewrite" and change the spelling on our words.

Guess it picks up all the "likes" that I add for you; the fact that your name is in every "header" that I like and it throws in the "z" every time. lol
