Thu Jul 23, 2009 5:22 pm

We'll be launching a three ship of three T-33s from Waukesha WI around 12 noon this Saturday...anyone else wanna make it a four-ship? Vlado?

All T-33s are in their original Canadian paint schemes and markings:

#579 NATO camo 439 Squadron and #599 low-vis grey 439 Squadron (sabre toothed "fang" tiger on tails), #610 low-vis grey AETE (Aerospace Engineering Test Establishment CFB Cold Lake (red "X" on tail). Pilots yours truly, Carl Schwerman, Dave VanLiere.

If one of the Grasshoppers would take me up in L-39 backseat, we could have this on photo...

Wow that is a great idea, getting some photo's in the air. Something else to work on today. Keps are job is never done... lol

All three aircraft are in this old photo we have from when they served with the 439th. We are going to get a picture of them together this afternoon on the ramp at UES in front of Area 51. See you all in OSH.

Paul,
I just want to give you a big THANK YOU for what you did for my father. I don't think he will ever get over that ride.

Thanks again,
Craig

Paul was talking about this yesterday. Evidently it was a true-cool thing, all ways up!

Happy to take an old T-Bird driver for a spin. He flew it great and was a great pilot to fly with...
