Let's see, I've got a sheared tailwheel lock pin from a DC-3, a peened R1820-82 piston (I think the matching cylinder head is around here somewhere,) a Smiths electric revolution indicator (funky Britsh tach that goes to 20,000 rpm,) a FAA approved first aid kit and a 5 pound halon bottle (both riding around in the trunk of the car), a generator control panel for a CV-440 and one blade of a Dowty Rotol prop. Just stuff I walked out the door with. Except the prop blade, it's over 6 feet long and weights 120 pounds. That was a bit of a project.

Better than stamp-collecting
Collecting, trading, and selling airline memorabilia is a big hobby for some people.
Here's an example of a gathering in the SEA area that Vagabond might be interested in: SEATTLE AIRLINE COLLECTIBLES SHOW |

I've also got an artificial horizon from a Bf-109 and a Spitfire. Not really airline stuff but aviation memrobilia no doubt. |

Ozark!!
Ha! Ozark.
Why, I have Frank Doss embalmed in a huge jar in my hallway closet. I swear that sometimes when I open the door and say "Ozark", he actually appears to smile. BTW, I'll sell him for the right price.

I have quite a bit of Ozark stuff. If my memory serves me, I have things like envelopes, ticket jackets, bag tags, and some plastic wings given to me as a child. I think I may have a few TWA items, but Lord only knows where that stuff might be....but I'll tell you where it isnt...in my drawers:D

I have an external fuel cap off of an Airlift DC-8. they were in a big hurry and had the beacon on before I could move the fuel truck.
I was so freaked that I forgot to put it back on after I was done fueling them. fbh |
I have a few bruises from the baggage compartment of the EMB-190. It is freaking 2' 11" and I am 6' 2".:eek::D
