Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 August, 2006.

The Warhawk Museum in Nampa, Idaho is hosting B-25 Days.

Pacific Princess is there and there is also a presentation by Bob Cardin and Steve Hinton on the recovery, restoration and flight of Glacier Girl.

The following shots were taken Saturday morning.

Is that Kermit's Wildcat or did he sell it on to someone else?

That is an AD-5N (EA-1E) Skyraider owned by I believe Danny Summers.

Yes, only one B-25 yesterday, and I do not believe that they were going to bring another.

The F-86 seems to belong to the museum. When I saw it back in March of this year, the surfaces were all aluminum, and now they have a coat of primer.

Looks like they are preparing it for static display.

I heard about plans to build a new hangar, or an extension to the hughe hangar they have now, in order to house Viet-Nam era exhibits and aircraft displays.

Saludos,

Big Fatty:

I don't know the names of the people on that T-28; you probably know them since you stated their names.

Perhaps this photo will help you make a positive i.d..
