Well, I'll just have to go fix that...

Fortunately, I keep my layers numbered for just such an emergency.

Beautiful shot...my most favorite plane. I've never seen this one before, what is all the writing on the fuselage?

Thanks...

The writing are the names of significant donors who help the Collings Foundation keep their planes flying...

[Edit] I'll have to go dig up the take off shot of their B24 "Witchcraft." Has even more names on it...

Hmmm,

I fixed the hyphenation and redid the link to PBase but not showing up as fixed here?

Wonder why?

NICE!! I would soooo buy that house in the background for the sole reason of being able to have a vantage point to photograph these beautiful birds as they come and go. I like how you included the whole Liberator in this one. Did you get one made up similar for the B-17?
