That's cool! My dad worked on the "YF"-22 at "generous" dynamics a few years ago. It became a joke to ask him about what he did at work every day and he'd say "Not a da** thing". Due to security he couldn't talk about anything he did at work after they started that project. He used to tell us stories about crazy stuff every few days then all of a sudden we got the stiff-arm. We still tease him about it from time to time.
F4 was one of my lil bro's fav planes too. He was a real wing nut. Would have probably joined A&P classes if he had stayed away from the bad influences.
I didn't find any great powerglide pics (posted what I found), but I read that they're very similar to dynaflows so I posted a closeup of one of those too. I think Coyote worked on a few of the powerglides. You might try to pm him (coyoterun)
