Do those that use the Bong suite generally know it was named for a fighter ace and not a device? Question is...does Jay know? :~) |

There is a place here in California (down by Bakersfield) called Nellie's
Nipple. It is currently in BLM conservation. I'd LOVE to establish an airport there. (Not to be confused with the mountain in Arizona of the same name.) {;-) Jim Jim Weir (A&P/IA, CFI, & other good alphabet soup) VP Eng RST Pres. Cyberchapter EAA Tech. Counselor http://www.rst-engr.com |

Socialists love their heros... You mean like JFK, LaGuardia, or Reagan? Brian. No ... leaders of the most free republic in history are not the same as martyrs of the socialist movement... Have another Molsen eh? |

;-) Nerd. If you'd like to read a good book about the P-38 Lightning, with many good tales of McGuire and Bong, read "Fork-Tailed Devil" by Martin Caidin. Personally, I think of it as the definitive book on the P-38. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
