I bought the Blue RTV and secured the P-Mag blast tubes and also provided a 'bumper' for the vertical hinge pin.

The workday was cut short because today is our annual Spruce Creek Christmas Toy Parade. The weather was perfect with a few clouds, light winds and a temperature of 80. The event started with a fly-by formation of Van's and other experimental aircraft, warbirds (T-34 fighters) and even a resident owned P-51, 38 aircraft in all. Then there was the parade of residents who decorated their antique cars, tractors, a kids train and golf carts. There were also dance groups, a drill team (battery operated drills of course) and much more that paraded down Taxiway Cessna which was lined lined with a thousand or two of friends from the community. I've included a very small sample of pictures of the nearly two hour annual event. Note Captain Paul's (DAL/NWA 747 Captain-retired) and the fabulous 747 float that he built. It's a real 747 traveling engine cowl complete with smoke, fire, music, bubbles, an original spiral staircase from a 747, first class seats and a host other goodies for kids and adults. Today was truly a magical day. ENJOY!
