Shout Out to Needle in Dallas

[Warthog]

My wife and I personally would like to give a BIG thanks to Needle in Addison TX.

He took 3 hours of his Sunday morning and gave Wreckman893, Elmo, my wife and myself a guilder tour of the Cavanaugh Flight Museum at the Addison Airport.

It just happened that they "scheduled" a maintanance check of their 1942 M4A4 Sherman tank for Sunday morning

There is rumor about pictures and video that may someday be posted on YouTube, but I deny everything (especially me trying to get inside the drivers hatch )

Along with the guider tour Needle was dealing with the P-51 emergency landing/recovery that morning. So he was busy.

Needle, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the great morning.

Sounds like it was a good time... I can't believe how small those hatches get over the years. it's almost like people are getting smaller.....

Hey Wreckerman (aka: you lucky dog):
It ain't just any-buddy that gets to drive a TANK

I'm looking forward to seeing the photographic and video evidence of your great opportunity !

Carry on.
