Spotted Thunderbird T-28

Thu Oct 11, 2007 8:33 pm

I was driving by the Wright Brothers Airport on the southside of Dayton and caught a passing glimpse of a beautiful T-28 wearing Thunderbirds colors.

I was wondering if anyone here knew the bird I'm talking about or know who owns it? Or even better has a good picture of it? I didn't get much of a look as I was on my way to work. Might try and catch it this weekend.

Thanks

If it's an A model with a Ham Standard it's owned by the late Ed Eilandfelds (spelling?) daughter Teresa, they have had it for 20+ years.

It was imported by George Baker with a few others, one was painted in
T-bird colors and another was in Blue Angles colors which was owned by Jud Deakins from Stuart Fl.
