That was truly epic. Determination and luck at it's finest.

Takes time. They want to fully check them out especially when there is risk of concussion.

Pretty sure that is his helmet you can see on the right side of the chassis on the rear shots not good.

My thoughts go out to the airline employees who were killed and injured.

older narrow bodies. MDs, 757, 737. Not sure about the baby Busses.

777s don't use blue juice. They have a vacuum system.

777s? JetBlue only flies the baby 'Buses.

my airline of choice used to serve mimosas in first class before take off for international flights. Now it is OJ or champagne. They will still mix you up one if you ask. My last flight to Tokyo I just asked for one of each and made my own mix. Made the FA laugh.

looks like there are 7 shows. They have something on at 10 each night this week.

they typically do shows for each of the classes. Are they not doing so this year?

it is a question of desire. 6-7 years ago I was like you. I could change the oil and replace a flat tire. Then I got a ridiculous quote for a brake job, went to the internet to look for instructions and saw it wasn't that hard. Did it myself in an afternoon. Felt great, saved $800 and learned something. I've gone on…

It was all about the baby fire suit. 18 years down the road when JR is trying to qualify for his first 500 he will have to answer for not drinking the milk in victory circle.

My guess is that is a Oreca Nissan under the cover and is just there as a place holder.

Sir Jack giving it the beans with a dab of oppo. I was lucky enough to see him at Goodwood several years ago. Still had that grin. Also, if you want to talk with one of the coolest dudes in Motorsport, go find his son David.

Wonder if PPG might have an upgraded window out there and they are replacing them on an attrition basis. Pretty common for a component that has a reasonable failure mode. there are no airwrthiness directives for the windows.

Aerodynamic sealing of the windows is a difficult issue. As mentioned, erosion is an issue. Beyond that, when you replace a wind typically you are looking at a 24 hour cure at nominal conditions. Longer if the humidity is high.

I'd go with something like this.

That is a flap fairing. It doesn't carry loads and is just there as an aerodynamic efficiency improvement. That big beefy structure you see that looks like a beam is the flap track. That is important. Not that you ever want parts falling off, but that part isn't that critical.

I think you would do ok with the '65 car.
