    Low Enough For You?

    Nice shot! Imagine the wings bristling with .50 cal and flashes. That would make you leave a puddle :D

    Lycoming Aircraft Engine Factory during WW2

    Really nice shots! Not too often you get an individuals insight behind the scenes. Being an ex-aviation mechanic the shots are really interesting, that is to see things being done by hand rather than machines and lathes with no person around. Looks like someones shop rather than an industrial...

    Boots with good (modern) insoles. EE Wide?

    M-43 Style boots

    I have had both ATF and WWII Impressions boots and they are both good quality boots. ATF is way cheaper and have held up well.
