I think Sewart had 3. All were 55 year models and had 00 in the S/N.
A look at the Sewart F/L picture shows 3 of these planes.
I posted that picture some years ago. Don't know where it is now.
There was an old C/C,c tale of a young airman getting hypmotised by one of the spinning props and walking into it and getting all cut up and kilt.
I don't know if it was true or not.
Anyone else ever hear that?
After thinking about this for a while, #3 starter went out the most especially when we were on a trip.
We would take the starter off and install a plate and shut off the bleed air to the starter then start #4, then 1 & 2 then windmill #3 to start it.
When we got to a place that had a starter that would fit we would change it. It happened more than once.
Strange how these things pop up nearly 50 years later.
Now if I could only remember what I had for breakfast this morning. Better yet what I did with all my money yesterday.
My way:
Eat at Chili's every night and avoid cooking.
Chili's don't allow concealed weapons any more around here, and I don't eat at places that don't allow concealed weapons.
T hat sign lets robbers know the patrons have already been disarmed and there will be no trouble for them to rob the place.
Back when Alexander came up with the band was when their wifes were on that time of the month.
The men had nothing else to play so they formed a band and called it Alexanders RAG Time Band.
Happy Birthday to every one that has had, will have or is suppose to have a birthday in 2014, or 2015.
It may slip my mind as other things have had so far this year, like my wifes anniversery and V day. Today!
