OK, Gang, here’s a short video of the A-26B landing on its first test flight last week! I was not there and these video clips were the only thing recording the event, so enjoy what we’ve got!

From 2020... Desperate Times Call For Desperate Measures! I'm hunkered down in self-imposed isolation for a couple of weeks and found that I ran out of one desperately needed supply. Thankfully, I have some great employees here at Fantasy of Flight. I called on my Aircraft Maintenance lead, Jack McCloy, to see if he could help me out. The following is what transpired.
