Bob Cook
Bob retired from flying several years ago. His airplane has been sold twice, since then. I have tried on several times to contact him, and the email and phone numbers I have for him don't work.

Oshkosh
I note in my iPad App for Oshkosh, that Delta Hawk has a booth. No idea what they will be showing. They are in booth 257, in the main aircraft display area.
Thanks Herb for pointing out the App.

You folks are overlooking the fact the David already operates a Turbo 337.
I would think that a P model will have very similar maintenance costs to your T337.
The P models have slightly higher gross...

Strut Mount
There was a company in Detroit, about 8 years ago, that had a video camera mounted to the strut of a 337. I don't remember the name of the company, but the Skymaster was bright red.
