Rich,
I can imagine! Look forward to seeing the photos though.
Cheers,

Pro Lab told me they are running behind, and to check back early this week for the prints, so cross your fingers for some Lake Chelan pics. My first attempt at photographing anything "flying by" at speed. Hard to remember to squeeeeeeze the shutter release when you are SO excited. Hard to remember to do anything but just stand there with your mouth open, grinning. And I wasn't even drinking beer, Walt!

I just read a new aluminum hull is about $500,000, Lycoming turbine engine $35,000, props run $10,000 to $14,000 (I'm sure that is from the concept to the CAD/CAM on up). Makes a new-in-the-crate surplus Allison for an old wood hull sound REAL appealling.
