Cleaning signs, a new hobby.

Very nice Bob -- Classic signs in a garage are a joy to behold

Friday night I went to the Civil Contractors NZ local branch construction awards, unfortunately our project didn't win in the over $5M class. It was held in the hanger at Classic Flyers, the local aviation museum, amongst the airplanes. This is a Grumman Avenger (NZ2505) and was the first Avenger to arrive in NZ in 1943 and flew with RNZAF 30 Sqn. It was retired in 1959 and for many years was stored at at various location until it arrived at Gisborne Aviation Preservation Society. It has been loaned to Classic Flyers, to allow its restoration to operational static condition. When I lived in Gisborne I was a member of Gisborne Aviation Preservation Society and I was there when we acquired the Avenger.

goodfellow:
Must have been a thrill to be a part of that preservation group. What an experience to be that close to historic airplanes.
