Texas Flying Legends should be in soon, and Berlin Express with the White Tailed Corsair is on its way as well.

DougR just arrived in the TFL Corsair, and it appears the TFL contingent this year will consist of their Corsair, Zero, P-40K, TBM, P-51, and B-25.

The P-51B Berlin Express and the Olympic Flight Museum FG-1D are landing. Will be five Corsairs when the Cavanaugh example arrives.

The Tbm, P51, P-40, and Zero did a formation break to land about an hour ago.

Saw a Corsair with a white belly/center section and blue outer wings land a couple of hours ago. Presumably Doug R.

Along with the Corsairs and Skyraider, on the webcam this morning I see the Zero parked with Kermit's Mosquito. The time difference means it's already close to 4pm OSHtime when I'm at work and able to see the camera, but it still gives me a thrill to see all the activity. Thanks EAA!

Heard a rumor that the BC Mossie may also be attending - putting 3 together on the ground at one time, and two in the air. Anyone hear anything about this?

Garbs,

Any chance of you getting some photo's of any fighters I know the 38 and 40 are there plus how many 51s on the ground.

Oh and if you or Dan could please get some interesting vintage stuff I would be very thankful

Thanks


Expecting about 12-15 Mustangs - most are here now but I don't have photos of all yet. Here's some of what arrived yesterday:

Scat III? Which P-38 got a repaint? Or is this a new restoration that sneaked in under the radar?

It would be amazing if true. My fingers and toes are crossed!
