Saw a C-17 doing touch-and-go's at Wright-Patterson AFB today. Also saw a C-5 come in for a landing from the NMUSAF parking lot.

P-40C Zero and a Black hawk plus a couple of 787's.

Today, Stampe SV-4, Harvard 4 and Stearman Kaydet at Mt.Hope; yesterday afternoon, Fairey Firefly AS.6 westbound along Lake Ontario shoreline in Burlington. Firefly, Stearman and Harvard are CWH's, while the Stampe belongs to Rick Rickards, who flies the CWH Lysander.

Preacher Benny Hinn's private Embraer Legacy came in to Orlando Executive today - now I know why he is always crying for people to send him money - gotta keep up with those payments.

Just spotted a Michigan ANG A-10 heading southwest, heading to or from a parade somewhere I assume.

While tubing down the Delaware river I spotted a lovely Stearman in blue and yellow U.S. Army markings cruising up and down the river near Vansant airport. Made several passes back and forth, even made a nice shallow dive right at my group.

3 F-4s doing touch and goes @ EFD about 10 minutes ago. 2 were dark green with red tails and wing tips, the 3rd appeared to be all gray.

On Memorial Day May 28th I was at the beach with the family and nice trio from the Military Aviation Museum in Virginia Beach did a very nice flyby with the P-51 in lead, left wingman Wildcat and Corsair on the right. Came by for a few passes @1,000 feet. Beaches were packed and all eyes were on them- nice touch on Memorial day.

At around 10:00 this morning I heard the wonderful sound of radial engines, ran outside, and saw Yankee Lady fly over headed down to Reading for WWII weekend. Can't wait to see our hangar housing the Mustangs and such this weekend for the show, and looking foward to the awesome sound of radial engines, Merlin's, and Griffon powered warbirds!

Saw three grey CH-46s and what looked like an MH-53 over downtown Chicago yesterday.

One of the Anders clan in VAL HALLA twice, once about two+ hours ago South bound (KPAE?) and just now, Northbound and definately movin' the mail-hearing an inline running well (as opposed to a bunch of EFA-18's)makes a crappy 63 degree overcast day in early Juneuary seem better.

Don't make me go get my flying monkeys-

There's a Navy haze grey Martin 404 rumbling about. No markings that I can see from a distance...no pics either due to where it's parked. It sure sounds good in the pattern

At work at Orlando Executive I had a Mitsubishi MU-2 land with a collapsed nose gear.

Don't get me wrong....you could very well have seen a Martin 404, but I wonder if it actually was a Convair 240/340/440 type. I am not aware that there are any Martin 404's currently flying, but I may be wrong and wouldn't mind being wrong as I would love for there to be a flying Martin 404 out there somewhere.

Maybe someone can find out exactly what airplane this was.
