Dont think you have to sign in, go to Houstonspotters then click on forum, someone scanned some old slides of old CAF airshows in Galveston, looks like they were taking nowdays LOL. If it does not work I will see if he can put them on a photo site and I can post a link here.

Nathan, I was the one who posted them. If anyone would like I can post them here. I posted 1971 and will be posting 1972 & 73 in the near future.

These are not all warbirds, but the aircraft that were there. I do have all of the aircraft Id except the Bell 47 and the Rockwell OV-10A "Bronco" (USMC) (VMO-1 Yazoo, ER215). Any questions on an id, post them.

Nice pics.

...now when's someone gonna mention the "Tramp Stamp" on the Corsair? ;)

Is that little airplane, N6040, the tandem seat Swift? Those are pretty rare machines, if I remember correctly.

Neat pictures, thanks for posting.

Those wheels on the Wildcat look funny.

Temco Buckaroo is it not? Which may or may not be the same thing as a tandem Swift.
