Thanks, Chris. As I looked at the pano, I realized that simply adding a
new set of tires added to the stately dignity of the old bird.
Those cylinder heads are truly industrial art!

It’s a graceful looking machine, even in that state. The engine showed what looked
like moiré until I realised that it was the design of the cylinder heads.

The supporters of the jump plane "Mister Douglas" are once more on-site working on
the airplane. They have raised funds for two zero-time Pratt & Whitney engines, the
first of which was installed on the airplane yesterday. The fittings and accessories from
the old left engine will now be inspected, refurbished, and installed on the second engine at
their shop in Florida. The fabric control surfaces have also been re-covered and are being
reinstalled.
Here is a 6-panel pano that I took this morning:
