Would be great if they can raise sufficient money for this project.

Hi Nigel,
You know Garry would have been all over this like a Monkey on a cupcake.
I don't think he did a camo scheme on the Freighter.
I don't have one in all of the paints he did. All I have are civilian.

Hi Joe, I thought exactly the same, how he would have been thrilled at the very prospect of one coming back to where it was built.
