My car was on display at the Ford Hangar from Sunday to Thursday.
This is the first time Ford has had a privately owned vehicle on display there!!!!
The Airbus

Ford Tri-Motor,compared to the Airbus

Airbus landing gear compared to a Person,it is huge. The wheels are spun by motors before landing to keep the wheels and tires from ripping off when landing due to its huge size and weight.

Jack was kind enough to sign underhood for me,as well as some keepsake's
we also had a nice conversation about the car and the EAA events. It was AWESOME too say the least.

That looks like a great time. I could see if you were a Mustang guy how amazing that whole scene had to be.

I wish there was something like that for us thirdgen f-body folks, but I don't think there's a trailer park big enough for us all.
