And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I worked on a Beech 18 on floats in Northern Ontario in 1984. A rival company scrapped two Beech 18s because the lower stringers in both wings were cracked. Since these floats don't have a spreader bar and at 80kts water is hard as rock the floats were bending the wings excessively.
Owning that beauty would definitely change your life.
