BTW behind logs lately here as my old main desktop data recording computer that I have used for years finally crashed for good.
All my old data etc on there and now cooked.. I didn't listen to my common sense and backup the data.
Got another old desktop for Air data but gonna be a while to get back up to speed :(
Can still surf internet good on this Pentium desktop machine that is fast :)

I can help you get that data as long as the hard drive still powers on. If you're interested let me know.

Interesting Ron as this tail is actually a bit older,must have stalled somewhere along the production line or production test plane.
Came in as BACKY01 (AE5751) tail #15-46011

The 56011 tail threw me for a few minutes but makes sense now :)
Scramble shows another eight early #15 year tails in storage as well. Guess starting to be delivered finally.
