MikMak, please post some pics of your aircraft!  Last aircraft job I did was a P-51 unlimited race plane for Reno races.  Shortened the wings by 2’ modified fuselage, engine etc.  Won five gold medals if I recall and still holds the fastest race laps at over 500 mph. Started as a wreck, crashed into a house, work started in Bakersfield, shipped to Chino with first gold win in 1982.  Dago Red.

forgot to mention another hobby that I kinda keep alive, long range bench rest shooting and still have some tack drivers!  Family hunts so I help daughters accuracy and tips.  But it all comes back to metal detecting.  Something about it that keeps me there!  


The members of this forum have a lotta cool hobbies. I love hiking in the mountains in the summer, exploring new places. Based in SoCal so it's too hot to detect in the summer, I detect in the fall, winter and spring. Also sold the boat and getting back into surf fishing, more exercise.

My alternate form of recreation is hunting. Prefer Elk hunting here in Oregon. Spring or Fall is the best time to be in the woods.Summer is just to hot and dirty for me, but a couple weeks of spring bear and a November elk hunt keeps me going all year.
