This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

At the Key forum a local said she taxied for 15min or so before the winds got too tough, they were hoping for tomorrow but apparently the weather isn't too good.
Still.....

I read it that it taxied for about 15 minutes and then went back to the hangar. No mention of winds. It may well have been weather-related, on the other hand there could have been something that Steve wasn't happy with.

A friend of mine was there watching, and said they'd encountered a technical snag.
He thought it was something that might take a day or two to fix.

It's too bad that all these photos got hidden in facebook, it would have been nice to see them.
