    XA-NAR Comet 4C

    Had a great chance to get into a Comet 4C under restoration at the Museum of Flights Restoration Center at Paine Field.
    Enjoy!

    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    Being a Ham, I love that straight key :-) although I preferred a paddle keyer myself...

    Probably not for a few more years anyways, and it will not fly. The interior, according the project manager is 85-90% finished, but the exterior, particularly the aft section and wings, have a long way to go.
