Yea, I just got back from my DeLorean time machine. I'll show you the pictures I took next year in 2009. Oh, wait a minute.....ooops, I guess I can't show them, as they haven't been taken yet.

Here is my album from this year, 2008. There weren't very many warbirds there this year, apart from a LOT of trainers, so I didn't take a whole lot of pictures.

If I'm not mistaken, I think it's based at Williams-Gateway airport at Phoenix. I believe this is the old Robinson's Jet Air Museum 104 that was based at Ellington in the 80's and 90's. I'm just going from memory, so perhaps someone else can fill in the blanks. Obviously, it's flyable though!

Those were really good, but it sucks that they had the P-38 fenced off so you couldn't look at the detail :cry:

Thanks! Yes, it does suck, but in some ways it is better for photography. At least with it fenced off, you can get pictures without people being in the way. At a large event, like Aviation Nation, it is about near impossible to get any pictures of airplanes without people in them, unless you arrive there at opening time.

Glad you liked them!
