Pretty expensive mailbox.


Not the prototype for this? ;-)

Naw,... the Cri-Cri is a very successful airplane, this roadside wonder
isn't, obviously.

Neat vid of the Cri-Cri though. Sure looks like a fun thing, sort of
like strapping on wings and being a Barn Swallow for a while. I wish......

But I am still looking.

It might be a Unique, constructed by a garage tinkerer. Photos of the
interior, engine and details would be helpful. I was actually in
Tucumcari in early August, during one of my trips out to and back from
Fort Huachuca, AZ. Part of my mother's family is from New Mexico
(Skeen, Hardin, Adamson) Had my pickup truck too so I could have just
loaded it on board. Drat!

Cheers,
