The pic of the crew enroute sure looks familiar. Only difference is that we don't have that kind of room in the Lodestar.

If you are speaking of the #9 aerial shot...plane behind the O-2s...yes.....it was tugged out there sometime and tugged back to CAF ramp on Monday.....it was pretty but sure left two great big oil puddles while it was on the bomber ramp.

Wow really nice Pictures nice in a way to see the Transports Aircraft get some Ink ! Still cant wait to see the Bomber Wing Beefed back up with FIFI Texas Raiders Devil Dog the Dasiy May just to name a few As I remember the Ghost Squadron is more than just a name it is a statement. When over 50 years ago very few if hardly nobody was doing anything to Save the Airplanes that help win WW2 it was the Spirit of a few men that saw such a need ! in their memory the Ghost Squadron is a living memoral to their efforts . I think that it is wonderful that they are and have made effort to now show case Korea and Viet-Nam this is very much part of our History and the Younger americans need to know that. THEY WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN ! And like everything else the CAF will survive too !
