RE: Ed Kazmurski's Taurus

Cees,

RE: Ed Kazmurski's Taurus

I no longer have the Taurus, it is now at the AMA Museum. However I have viewed my pictures again and as well has my recollection and I do not believe there was any tape in those locations.

RE: Ed Kazmurski's Taurus

Cees,

RE: Ed Kazmurski's Taurus

Perhaps we should perform an autopsy of each plane, maybe Ed left behind some encrypted message in the fuselage of each. Just kidding! Or as my wife suggested, "Why don't you just cut it up into...
