We have finalised the 34 pages of pictures from our week in the USA, including
the USAF Museum at Dayton, Ohio, the Tri-State Engine Show at Portland and the
morning we spent at the Indianapolis Speedway Hall of Fame.

As usual, we have created a menu-based listing with large thumbnails, enabling a
good view of the pictures without needing to download the page with the picture
enlarged.

We have not put captions on anything at all, yet, but will be updating during
the coming weeks with input from our team of engine spotters on the Lists.

There are 600+ pictures, a bit of a record for us, but it was a good trip and we
had the opportunity to freely snap at anything of interest, and at Portland
especially there was plenty to see!

We took 2 cameras this year in case of any problems, but the main camera
performed flawlessly, although we had to use extra batteries each day because of
the amount we used it and the fact that flash was used a lot to balance up the
pictures.

There have been access problems on Oldengine.org today, we had delays in
connecting earlier on but it seems better now (9pm UK Time) 

The structure of the directory is such that there are 34 pages with interlinking
url's at the bottom of each page. Thus you can jump between pages at will. Note
that at present the main menu does not have the link to the start of the new
directory, you will have to enter by the following url:

http://www.oldengine.org/members/diesel/Portland04/Portland4menu1.htm

If you accidentally exit to the main menu you will have to come back in through
this url.

If you missed anything at Portland, you might find it in the pages as you browse
through. Note that the USAF pictures are pages 1 to 8, Portland are pages 9 to
28 and Indianapolis are pages 28 to 34.

Enjoy, and please let me know if you have any linking problems or non-operating
pages.
