I would like to thank Larry and his wife. After my post on the two bailey planes that were destroyed in a FedEx delivery Larry chose to send me a nice Bailey no 7 that he had available that he no longer had a use for. This was a nice thing he did. I am so grateful for his act of kindness and I thought this was worthy of posting here since I feel that this website is one large extended family. Thank you Larry, and my thanks to Mrs Presnall who took the time to ship it for Larry.

Aw, shucks!    Any of you guys woulda done the same! I shipped it FedEx, but air...it's hard to do anything else when you live in their hometown! Enjoy Michael! Those Baileys are good stuff....only Lie-Nielson and a couple of the boutique makers are as good these days....

Disguised as a mild-mannered pilot for a struggling American airline, he fights for truth, justice, and the OLF way!!!

Kudos to you, Larry.




Let's just hope this scenario is not in the future for any goods on the way to fellow OLFers.
