Calm down, Ryan, it's just another old B-25 with a green paint job ! They just went round and round all day. :P

Saw an F-18 today. Flying low and backwards ! It was very complete, sans radome and outer wings. It was loaded onto an 18 wheel lowboy headed westbound on I10 just west of Lafayette, LA.

Sorry about the picture quality. My old standby died recently and I'm stuck with a cheap point and shoot with almost no zoom for now. Not fun when you're trying to shoot from 1000'.

Air Heritage's C-123 made its 1st flight of the year day before yesterday. The #1 engine still has a constant heavy smoke trail in flight, but thats normal for a radial right?? :roll: The best place to be when that thing is flying is in a bunker! :D

B-25 Panchito took off from Falcon Field, GA (KFFC) today around 12:30. I'd flown over to pick up parts at Aircraft Spruce and taxiied out just ahead of the old girl. I climbed out to the east and they climbed out to the northeast so I had a nice view of the sun glinting off her in the distance as we diverged.
