A Navy E6 departed EFD yesterday morning

LSFM's Thunderbird and T-6 at EFD

Couple of L-39s

Also saw the CAF SB2C this morning, looks like Ed was doing touch and goes over at Clover,...er excuse me, Pearland Regional...

Just so everyone knows (in case you didn't already), this Mustang is the former, "Sugar Booger," owned for many years by the late Bill Hubbs. Paul Besterveld now calls it "Pecos Bill" in honor of Mr. Hubbs.

Thanks for posting that picture, Dan.

Saw a gaggle of oldies - a Stearman, a Standard D-25 biplane, and a Feisler FE-156 Storch. Yes, I was at Fantasy of Flight in Polk City, FL, and Kermit Weeks was demo'ing the Storch. Amazing aircraft if you've never seen one fly.

Just received an email 'alert' that a military operation will be taking place up and down the Hudson River this morning from 10:30 to 11:30 am?

No idea what will be flying.., most likely a Hawkeye or Herk as I do not think we will be seeing a VC-25A around these parts for a while :shock:
