Do miracles never cease to amaze me!! I finaly got the rest of the First Flight coins in the mail today! After seeing the disappointing unciruclated dollar, I was very happy with the unc half, proof half, and proof dollar. FOr some odd reason, I like the way the halves came out better than the dollar. The best looking out of the series has to be he $10 gold proof.

    I've been on those type of rides before in Bealeton, VA. The ones I went up were Stearman PT-17s, WWII trainers. The Bealeton Flying Circus has 2 types of rides: a regular ride thru the country and a full-blown aerobatic ride. The aerobatic ride is super cool! They slap a parachute on ya, strap you down in a specially modified PT-17, haul you up to about 4,000 feet, and the pilot then goes nuts. You are in the front seat so you get a great view of the propellars spinning. It was very strange to look UP and see grass!

    Cliff,

    Yesterday you were all bent out of shape that you hadn't received the balance of your order. Glad you got your coins today.

    The half dollars really are nice, arn't they !!
