Thanks for the pictures. Great job on that piece of history.
Did anybody do some rivet counting? Golly that is a bunch of rivets to go over.
I do like the pic with both bombers shining proud!

Thanks again everybody.
The logistics and such were a huge stress factor. Myself and Yvan tagged teamed the responsibilities as needed. He was a great help!
As far as processes, we polished and got paid.
We had pads made specifically for us. Everything else is proprietary.
