Still waiting for all those moderate muslims to come forward and renounce the acts of the "few radicals"........12 years and it's not happenin'. You can draw your own conclusions and I have mine.

Nov 2, 1947......The Spruce Goose Flies.........

"The Hughes Flying Boat—the largest aircraft ever built—is piloted by designer Howard Hughes on its first and only flight. Built with laminated birch and spruce, the massive wooden aircraft had a wingspan longer than a football field and was designed to carry more than 700 men to battle."

When we moved to CA., we were lucky enough to see the Spruce Goose while it was still being stored at Long Beach. Big, big !!

I also remember having Christmas dinner at Sir Winston's aboard the Queen Mary........elegant and I fell in love with Yorkshire pudding!!!!
