OMG Jack, Seen your posting and started drooling before I clicked on the thread wondering what exciting pic you might have. Then I come on and was blown out of the water seeing pics of a N3N heaven!!!! Now I am just about to cry...................just so many still out there, & not enough interest in getting them airborne again!

Dam stearmans get all the glory!


When were they taken??? Is that where there at now??? My e mails from POF and Yanks have still gone unanswered.
