At 8:40 AM, I saw a Broussard flying east, just south of I-70 in eastern Colorado.

I saw it buzzing around Dayton in April. Was quite impressed!

Sitting at my desk in work in East Norwalk when suddenly I could hear the familiar sound of a Merlin. Next thing I know "Toulouse Nuts" flies right overhead. I guess the Collings Foundation is in town.

On Monday afternoon, I was at Cleveland Hopkins watching the T-Birds take-off for their act at Burke Lakefront for the Cleveland Air Show, when about 10 minutes after they took off, a Kuwaiti Air Force C-17 landed and parked near the tower. I almost thought it was a C-141 as it was landing because of the gray and white paint scheme which reminded me of the one the Air Force painted their transports in before going to camo.

That was "Miss Mitchell" - it has been out and about today providing history flights/rides (the most authentically-restored B-25 you can pay to take a ride on) ahead of the hangar dance taking place this evening at the CAF MN Wing hangar at Fleming Field in South St. Paul.

Thanks - saw her overhead at least 3 times. Also a T-6 and a BT-13 (I believe)

Saw either an Cessna 337 or an O-2 fly over the Stratford train station. Probably coming from BDR.

Driving home from church last Sunday I looked at an shape I caught in the corner of my eye and saw, plain as day, a B-17. That's definitely a surprise. Must have been Collings at Lunken Field.
