Gorgeous photos! Man, I wish HJGB had made it to Oshkosh this year, dying to see her fly.

Wow... Thanks for the kind comments guys. I would be remiss if I didnt give credit where credit was due! Dave Young shot the photos, all I did was steer those guys around the sky hoping to not drag them into some clouds.... Vlado, Chuck and Doc did an awesome job in some light choppy air. It was just a spectacular day for flying!

Greg I was peddling the T34 as fast as I could. It is also a wonderful airplane!!

Here are a few additional shots.
Cheers!
Mike

Absolutely gorgeous.
Those two airplanes make a terrific pair.


Obviously, though, I'm very partial to the blue-nosers.
So how about a few aerial shots where it's not third in line? :D

Anyone notice something different about HJGB? It was an authentic change per Bud Anderson's comments, well after HJGB won its trophies.

This may not be what you are looking for, but the Spitfire rear view mirror appears to have been removed.
