I'll be careful not to cause any more consternation in the future and will look both ways, etc, etc,
Over and out
Suffice it to say that there ain't much in the way of "good will for the customer" that they can legitimately brag about from over that way.

You possibly rounding-up some T5 pieces? Heard told me you stopped-by Florida to look at his T5 adapted to the torque tube recently. By the way, I ground-handled many a NATIONAL and UNITED DC-8 back in the late '60s and early '70s.....beautiful airplane, and the last of Donald D's "real" airplanes. DD
