Lynn, I know it probably sounds conceited or something similar but I sure agree with you. We all are kind of saying 'wow look what we did'.
We all have worked real hard to get her to where she is now and that big effort shows. Just like you said; it is the photos like what Jeremy took that make it all come together. I was itching to do air to air to get shots like this and when I finally got to see them I was pleased beyond belief. I don't get to see this stuff from my seat so it is awesome to behold.
Jeremy, thank you for the wonderful photos. Can I get a hi res copy or two so I can make large prints to give to the folks that contributed to the project?
I was hoping to get the thread updated sooner but too much work to catch up on. Below is a shot taken by Greg Morehead of Warbird Digest from a photo flight we did on Thursday evening at OSH. We were able to get a photo flight together with Conrad's FM-2 and Warren Pietsch in the Texas Flying Legends Zero. Greg let me post the shots with Conrad but the rest will have to wait until they are out in the magazine.
It was awesome to fly with Warren and Conrad. Again, I didn't get to see it from my seat as all I got to look at was a stinkin' T-6. I certainly mean no offense at all Trey as your Texan is just beautiful! Everyone else on the Harpoon said that it was a great flight too. How often do you get to fly with a real Zero and a beautiful newly restored FM-2 in the same paint scheme as our Harpoon. It was a good day.
Thanks for the photo Greg
