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

Love it! I like seeing west coast stuff, I don't see most of these planes in person in the midwest.

If you mean the one with yellow wings, it is N700RW with Lone Star.

Not sure about ownership for the TFL birds - the overall glossy blue one did not fly with them at OSH 2016:
P-40 and FM-2 are in different paint, if not different planes altogether.

Thanks for all the terrific photos! (Will, you could produce a Warbird calendar with yours!)

The Texas Flying Legends fleet is very large, and they never operate all of their aircraft from show to show. TFL owns/operates two P-40's, an E and a K - the one in your photo from Oshkosh is TFL's K, and the one that raced at Reno is TFL's E. TFL also owns/operates two different P-51D's (and soon a C). The Wildcat at Reno this year was the CAF bird, not the TFL Wildcat. The all-blue TMB is indeed owned by TFL, and has been for some years now (it was previously owned/operated by the late Danny Summers). The "Duchess of Dakota" C-53 in the first pic is also owned/operated by TFL. According to Instagram posts, the target-tow schemed "yellow-winged" TBM was brought to Reno by the Sanders Aeronautics guys.
