Warbird Information Exchange

I will. Look for the big guy with the Connecticut Air & Space Center T-Shirt on pushing the Baby Buggy...
I coordinated some help for the NJAHOF so they could get their HH-52 Sikorsky able to move. The CASC rebuilt the tail gear and provided the proper jacks to lift her up. Looking forward to seeing it on the ramp. They did a nice job on the repaint (Coast Guard)

I stopped by the show for about an hour this afternoon. It was my first time visiting and my only complaint is about the offsite parking/bussing. It was a bit of a pain. Other than that it is a very nice event!

Here are a few pictures of some of the warbirds in attendance.

I was very happy to see the MAM/Yagen Spitfire and Tom Duffy's P-51 there.

i just got back. spitfire looked nice . the parking is always bad there.

My son and I had a good time. Parking is what it is. At least the buses were pretty frequent. Shea Oakley and his guys put on a pretty good day of fun. If your in the neighborhood tomorrow stop in and check out the show.

Note his pin on the hat. It was a gift on the day he was born from an aviation friend in California.

The best part, for anyone familiar with the area, was coming across the George Washington Bridge into NJ and having the Yankee Lady head on at LOW altitude coming at me, heading over the Hudson River. I had goose bumps on my toes I was so dam excited.
