The liner is easily seen in about a half dozen pieces in Calloways YOW (yard of wonders).

Back in the days before turbines Fred Leland in Seattle had a bunch of the Packards and put one in a unlimited hydroplane. It never did much but it was something to see and hear. I believe it was one of the boats he had that was sponsored by KISW/ROCK radio station in Seattle.

I don't think that George want's a bunch of people wandering around his yard.

Some slow day I'll drag out my 1948 Jane's ATWA and look. Lot of neat aircraft in there.

I love the Allison-Merlin which one is better debate. Been going now for seventy years with no end in sight. Personally, I like the Allison.

Rich, Where on earth did you find a 1948 Jane's? That must be one of the most coolest references! Tony
