Dr Evans
 Sorry that it has taken so long for me to thank you for your
posting regarding my call for help for air/aviation museum information.  My
earlier 'thank you' did not get through.
Your comment was a great help and I really do appreciate it.

 Thanks

PS  I tried downloading the information via FTP and Gopher without any
success. I think I need to reach for the internet handbook again

Thanks once again

John Howes
