I think that the fire bottles put out the fire in the engine, some of the flames spread to a wing which caught the wing tank on fire. The plane could have been saved if the fire engines could have gotten to the plane.

Leo, It has been confirmed that we will have a meeting over at Addison tomorrow.  I'll check on the engine repairs on the airplane formally known as "Diamond Lil".

Thanks, I called my wife Old 927 an it didn't go over too well.  I will look forward to the status of the plane.

I might be slow, but I'm mostly accurate.....

The point is just that I call her Lil.  I'd still call her that even if she had major surgery and couldn't shoot no more.  I called her Old 927 just to see what would happen.  I is not smart.

Did she even KNOW that Old 927 is named Diamond Lil?

Flowers may help!

She knows.  Heck she lives with me.  That is why I give Pop a hard time when he calls her by that heathen name.

When I said "her" I was reffering ta the plane.  No troubles on my front, I'm a hero fer defending ma good wifes name.  She can't unnerstand why they would change the name of the aircraft.

Leo,  I went to Addison for the meeting yesterday and #1 engine is still being repaired. It is supposed to be ready for the 4th of July weekend.  "FIFI" will be at our hangar in Fort Worth for the 4th of July weekend.  The B-24 will be in Addison for that weekend. Both places will be giving tours. They will be selling rides on "FIFI" that weekend, starting on Sat. and finishing on Mon.  "FIFI" had a hard landing at Farmingdale NY. and suffered some damage to the underside of the rear portion of the aircraft. The crew chiefs repaired the damage and the plane finished the east coast tour. They installed spare parts and brought the damaged parts back to be repaired at Addison.  We are hoping for good attendance at both places over the 4th weekend.
