  1. Do not bid in the clear. You created a bidding war. Next time use ESnipe to enter your limit bid in the last 4 to 8 seconds. The $100 bidders would have stopped long before $400,000

  2. Those valve covers at 31:21 sure brought back bad memories of my time with Teledyne Continental Castings. We made a lot of those things along with cylinder sleeves, etc. I still have some nasty scars from being burned by molten aluminum being sprayed on me. I drove out to the old plant a couple of years back and it really felt good to see it all shut down and boarded up. Nobody else will have to suffer from working out there!

  3. Your eBay biding strategy is wrong. You don’t actively drive up the price. Instead, don’t bid and wait until the last 10 seconds with a proxy bid high enough that your are willing to pay. And, don’t make it a round number, both dollars and cents.

  5. Best FIRE FIGHTING Plane is Russian BE 200 (Beriev) with PW turbofan engines. That what the catalog shows.

    I am not Russian, however this plane is designed for way more versatility alike maritime rescue etc.

    I wonder which gonna be Buffalo Airways next planes: Maybe Ukrainian Antonov, very durable machines. Some models are produced in Poland alike the PZL M28 Skytruck with PW Canada engines.
    US Military type C-145.

  7. Cigarettes helped kill arnie—they killed my sister, my brother—i wonder if it was worth the years of the nicotene fix. I personally dont think so. Its sad these are available to kill more brothers,sisters,mothers and fathers.
