In 1977, a replica of the Spirit of St. Louis made a tour of the USA.  By 
the time it reached Tullahoma, TN, it was in need of some maintenance.  Our 
local Master Aircraft Mechanic, Wayne Amelang, on the right in the photo, 
experienced with old radial engines, offered assistance.  Here, a cylinder 
replacement is underway.
