Anyone seen this video? from Dillon Presision? Interesting video, not many subguns though! I was expecting a few more but...Anyways, it has some good video of a Colt 21 firing. Also, it shows the Champlin fighter museum when they had the machinegun display (with the Midas Thompson) circa? 87?...

I believe the Fw-190D9 or was it a D13.. was bought by one of the co-founders of Microsoft. He bought the rest of

the collection as well (aircraft). Last I knew it was going into a museum up in Washington State. The Boeing Museum???

 

Saw that Fw-190D and the rest of the collection about 11 years ago. What a nice collection in one of the hottest places ever.

It was 10:00am and already above 110dF in the hangar. Course it was early August...

 

I am a long time P-51D Mustang enthusiast, they had an A-36A there.

 

Cheers,

Hi Walter63a, The video (tape) that we are refering to is one that is available from Dillon precision: http://dillonprecision.com/default.cfm? Athough, it is an older video.. They might still carry it (i think)
