Thanks everyone. Graeme, according to the FAA database, there are 138 registered Beech D45s registered. The D45 includes the T-34A, B and a few other models. With the amount of ADs and things they have had, I really think they are on borrowed time, sadly. The air frames, from what I understand have a limited number of hours that they can fly. Some of the March birds are staying on the ground because of that.

TL, here is inside the front cover, and a couple of the pages. I am on 7 total pages and the center 2 page section. 8)

Yep, Jim was the one who wrote the article that went along with the pictures. Jim Ostrich, John Flippen and Larry Bierma were all there. Nice group of guys.
