Any aeroplane with a royal drinks cabinet gets extra points. Good Kiwi resto, too.

Great shots Eric. Glad to see LIVE BAIT there, a former Boise, Idaho Mustang I fell in love with as a teenager, when then a Reno racer with local Mike Loening, as N5482V.

Thanks. We have had some great light this week. That and some good patients waiting for people to get out of the way. Sometimes I just have a split second between one group of people exit the image and the next group entering. Doug Fisher and myself had a good 5 minutes with the Seafire. What an awesome machine.

Eric

I'm excited to see 'em, Spooky! Same to you Dan and Eric (and everyone else) ..... Dan's shot of the Sky Crane still blows me away every time I look at it, even tho' I live for the warbird and antiques shots. What a machine!

It's a sad day to be flying a C-17 but we are taking off for Oshkosh. Should be landing about 1215 local.

I've never seen the red nose Mustang or Live Bait. Neat. Thanks for posting.

I love that Beech 18 acro display. Awesome.

I feel like I've missed something. Why was it a sad day to be flying a C-17, and why might they have grounded him? Thanks, buddy.
