Hi guys,
Well......I found that 707 I was looking for. Reckon I could pick this one up real cheap. And she just needs a little TLC :D

A caustic soda bath and a few spares...she'll be good as new! What scheme will you do? :lol:

You are indeed right Damo...... as with all my other refurbs, a quick caustic soda bath, some after-market spare parts, and a really cool WIF Air Racer scheme :D , (imagine whipping a 707 round the pylons at Reno :D ).

You buy it ray, we'll all help put it back together and clean it for ya! Few slings, couple of cranes - no big deal! Imagine poker nights in Ray's 707! Uber coolness!

Are you sure about this Ray?, you may have a bit, well a lot of trouble getting those Conways going

Thought you would be more a P&W man

Yeah...I am a P&W man through and through, (no sweeter sound/sight in aviation than the howl of four JT3Ds at full take-off power belching columns of black smoke. Mmmmmmmm, now that's aviation!!!!!!!!!D )
