I'm gonna have to get by there next time I'm at the folks. They are only a few miles from there and I saw this group buzz overhead going in to land on my last visit. Didn't see the staggerwing in formation with the warbirds though! :wink: Very pretty!!!

Tim,
Believe it or not that is SPANNER in the backseat of the BT-13 as Howard taxi'd by.

Harper and I waited about 20 minutes to see if "they" could get OH BABY the T-6 started and after it became apparent it wasn't a happening thing we had issues getting the BT started. Whatever ailed the T-6 must have been contagious. :roll:

Then another fellow WIXoid showed up and practiced for his formation card in a Yak/BT-13 Flight of two.

Life was good! :D

SPANNER

PS... the WHS N3N-3 is barely visible in the shot with the Yellow LSFM T-6.
No progress to report on the N3N-3 one yet.
