GREAT PIC's everyone!!! I finally made it back to Houston tonight... The picture of "Special Delivery" on final is FANTASTIC!!! Im guessing it was taken on Friday afternoon when we arrived.

I just wanted to thank Michael Luther and the rest of the folks from the Yankee Air Museum for their hospitality! I was able to meet up with Roger Cain and Warbird kid from the forum which was really cool.

Paul, sorry I didnt get a chance to make it down to the other end of the runway (aka: Warbird ramp) and catch up to you and check out your airplane.

I was able to get some good air to air shots on Saturday, hopefully I will have them posted later on this week.

The last two years this was Warbird Digest's Green Dragon. It is now owned by Tom Duffy.

Bryan, It's N3155G, 44-30832.
It has been painted over the years as, Can Do, then Buck U and most recently as the Green Dragon as Eric said. :wink:

Bill

Here are a few more pics from Thunder.
I now have more posted HERE

Thanks. I used to see it quite a bit when it was Buck U and part of the Amjet (Polar) museum.
We sure were spoiled here in the twin cities when we had 5 airworthy B-25s in the area....

Everyone, great pictures! Too bad I did not go.

What did it sound like to have 15 B-25's flying at once? :shock:

Yep, it was taken Friday afternoon when you guys first came in. That was the best shot I got at Thunder :D
