Unfortunately in my move from CA to TX while I was laid up with a broken 
shoulder and a foot infection my brother in law decided that most of the 
parts and a lot of my radios were pure junk after I pointed out to him 
that they were salable parts, which he promptly sold for .10 a pound to 
a local junk dealer. Three 2 1/2 ton stake bed loads plus what the 
helpers carted off as scrap metal. Which also included nearly complete 
R-390A and some frames plus lots of modules. He was judge, jury and 
executioner all in one.
That is the end of Airborne Engineering sadly to say.

Hank, very sorry to hear about this tragedy. Several tons of R-390A parts, 
frames, modules were carted off as scrap? It is hard to believe that all this 
happened. Were you planning to bring all of the R-390A parts with you to Texas? 
Does this mean you no longer have any R-390A parts for sale? 73 Todd WD4NGG
