Just went over my house.

T Bird. Such a lovely sight and sound over Clear Lake about three this afternoon.

Not today, but I saw a C-47 flying around Kalamazoo earlier this week. Might have been "Yankee Doodle Dandy" since I think it was supposed to be in town for a YAF member trip this week.

1:25 this afternoon an Osprey came roaring west over YV - only the second one I've seen flying around here. I wonder why there haven't been more flying out of 29 Palms?

Yup, after I logged off she came by over the house and I could ID her.

This morning while I was at our local farmer's market, I saw two A-10's heading west toward Oakland County International Airport (I still tend to call it Oakland/Pontiac Airport). A couple of weeks ago two A-10's were there doing several fly by's and put on a little show while I was sitting in line at the Burger King next to the same airport. I'm sure they were from Selfridge. I love living by an airport!!!

Yesterday morning I saw the EAA B-17 Aluminum Overcast fly past my home heading north, probably to Deer Park, a wartime B-17 training Satellite field.
They're selling rides this weekend at Felts Field.

I figure if you wanted my opinion on items unrelated to this forum, you'd ask for it.

It's ten minutes past eight on a glorious sunny evening ~ elevated to perfection by the sound of a Rolls Royce Merlin engine as Spitfire T.9 / PV202 arcs around
over the top of my cottage on it's way into Duxford.

It is all to easy to reflect that this must have been such a common site here in 1940 ~ when the battlefield to save England was the sky I'm gazing at now as I type this.

Or maybe I've drunk far too much coffee today .....

I'm jealous. I used to see those A-10s quite a bit when they were based in Battle Creek.
