Really good shots Mike, thanks...what was their total lift time to get it out, figure they had to let it drain before trying to load it?
Don

I think it was just under 8 hours from initial lift to touch down on the barge.
 
It's amazing how complete the plane is, considering what it had been through. If it was sitting on the tarmac and you just glanced at it, you would hardly notice anything amiss. Great pics!
 
AeroMike,

have a good un...
