Hello Jay

May be these two men were in the plane when they decided to land on the roof ?
I wonder if this challenge really give opportunity to new challengers to get their aces rank

You are right! I should have posted a more complete image. I'm not up to my standard:

Traditional thread time= off!....I slept good and early though.

Could have presented an easier foto for new people!....Bad choice!

I like to keep this challenge rolling when the option is up to me.

I'm BAD!

Let's give it a little time and then I will post a more complete foto, since it is just barely past the 3 hour time.

Best Regards, FOKKERJ

Hi Ransom E. Olds,

I agree, any hotter and you would be sizzling!

The formal uniforms are a dead give-away also.
