I could also live with mine donating parts to get another going, if

I'll talk to Paul and see how much work he wants. *He does this sort
of thing for fun but it pretty serious about it. *Wish I could
introduce you guys directly to Paul. *He's a cool guy. *Worked on the
second stage engine of the Saturn V. *Was in the blockhouse for the

his Cessna 140 occasionally and introduced me to the glider club back
when I was an aimless college nit wit. *He has the "manual" for the
Saturn V rocket. *It's about 5 inches thick with wiring diagrams that
fold out 5 pages long. *COOL.


Sounds good Matt, let me know what you findout. Hope he can fit it in
to his schedule, while not a Saturn V, it should be a fun
project..............
