    There is no rational, logical, or physical description of how free will could exist. It therefore makes no sense to praise or condemn anyone on the grounds they are a free willed self that made one choice but could have chosen something else. There is no evidence that such a situation is possible in our Universe. Demonstrate otherwise and I will be thrilled.

    Probably a piece of a Catalina, given the location.

    Yes, that Bristol Engine exhaust-collector-ring formed to be the leading-edge of the cowl is unique.

    In the Lysander, it overheats on the ground as the hot air off that ring flows aft to the cylinder heads. At OSH last July there was no way I could taxi to the Warbird area -- had to shut down and get towed.
