I was there! 9 years old. You gotta have some k-zoo P-40 in there somewhere?

I was there, it was my first airshow, and I was 7 months old.

These shots were taken by my father. There are thousands more that are AWOL.

Awesome photos. My grandparents took me to Oshkosh '82, I still have the program. I was 11 years old and it was the first time I'd seen warbirds up close. I remember the P-40, Bob Hoover's P-51, and the P-38 that is now "Thoughts if Midnite", FIFI, and the Eagles Aerobatic Team.

This was also the first time I took photos of an airplane- with a Kodak Disc 6000 camera! That camera is right here in my desk drawer! My grandparents kept it all this time!

Problem is I don't know what happened to the prints my grandparents had and all I have now are the disc camera negatives. Does ANYONE know where one can go to get these old disc negs developed? None of the local shops here do.

Chappie, there should be a specility shop in your area where they can convert 8mm stuff to disc, they should be able to do the same for you there as well...unless you are way out in the stick :drinks3: or in Death Valley
