Hello and I hope all are well. I was a very active and frequent poster to this board years ago. I owned a CCKW353H1 named Betty Boop that I loved but due to health reasons had to sell her. I just wanted to hop in and tell all that remember me that I am still alive and kicking. I will be posting more often on the board. I may not own a CCKW anymore but I sure learned a lot rebuilding Betty Boop and from the guys on this site.

Thanks guys. I took my M38 to a local air show at the West Houston airport in late April. I belong to an MVPA group called the 6th Cavalry Historical Association and some of their guys came. We had my M38, 4 GPW/MB's and a 41 Dodge WC there. There were three P51D's there, B17, C60 and an array of trainer aircraft. The crowds were great and we had a real good time. The weather was outstanding.
