Ryan, One word, OUTSTANDING ;D.
Now I wish I would have made my change in schedule to divert from Cleveland to Chicago last week. Will this display be anywhere else in the next year. You have done an absolutely awesome job. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Ryan, you're doing a tremendous job preserving the Cousteau heritage for the next generation of Vintage Divers. As they say in the Navy ... Bravo Zulu

Ryan,

I am curious, and have been for some time, about the "horns" on the back of the yellow, Cousteau streamlined scuba. Are they there to release bubbles which, in some positions, go internal to the scuba from the chest regulator? Or is there a different function for them, like carrying the communications gear?

Great, wonderful display, and I am really enjoying the on-line photos.

The black caps on the back were originally part of the comm equipment but when they dropped the comm equipment dummies were made to keep the look consistent. If you look at the end of the comm equipment:

you will see the correlation. -Ryan
