                      Re: Red Baron RB-51 Buildup/History

                      Cool site and pictures.
                      On the bottom of the first page there is a picture: "Completed Instrument Panel". I was wondering if anyone knew the purpose/reason behind the additional instruments labeled "one", "three" and "four"... and if you can speak to "two" that would be cool too.
                      Thanks!

                        That is a great post, I like many have the Denver Kissinger Lithograph of the Red Baron. I am glad that at the time I had many people sign it. Steve Hinton signed it after flying a different plane at the Races in Reno, he left a small oil smudged palm print also. Randy Scoville signed it in a way that twisted "Z", "Z" signed it and said "Nice Guy". a nice memento of good friends.
