I'm guessing the skyraider picture is an early one from when Bob Pond owned it? It's amaizing that it still wears that horrid blue. I really can't wait to see the new paint job.

The Mustang in the 1st pic- I can't find a plane with a corresponding 44-15080 # in the registry. What is the identity? I'm curious as to where it is now since I've had a framed posterboard picture of this plane since I was a kid.

Thanks CG51. Wow, it sure underwent significant changes during the restoration.

I like the BT-13's!!! Super. Last time I was at Osh in '05, only PacMan showed up with his BT-13. :( Bummer.

Maybe this year?
