I was thrilled to discover your website and find that you were offering multiple products with the image of the Filben Maestro as my grandfather, William Filben, was the inventor. I will be framing this photo for my home and anticipate ordering many other items in the near future for my large extended family

From the book Flying Tigers by Dan Ford: Burgard set up a patrol to the south of Guilin, in which work he was joined by 2nd Lieutenant Romney Masters in what seems to have been the first combat action for the 23rd Fighter Group. Spotting a Nate and a Ki-45 Toryu, Burgard went after the fixed-gear fighter and left the young army officer to take care of what seemed the easier target. The Nate wriggled out of the way, however, so Burgard, too, made a run on the twin-engine plane. "The bomber was light, fast, and exceptionally maneuverable," he reported.

Spectacular, Robert! Thank you for the story behind the image - really makes it come to life. And as Roger noted, the selective blurring is superb. Side note: one of my horses flew from Seattle to JFK on Flying Tigers back in the late 70s.
