Seeing those T-38s from Vance do touch and go's at the airfield at Ft. Sill made basic training a lot more enjoyable. The apaches and other stuff I saw flying around out there didn't hurt either.

BTW the afterburner on that guy...wow, quite a hard thump when it lights, sounds like a little explosion, What a great jet. ETA: Every time he hit the burner, right before it lit, a small white puff of raw jet fuel would come out...Awesome

He had just come back from Nam flying F-100's. We had not seen each other in 40 years when I ran into him at the airplane on Friday. I was flying the dark blue Corsair in the show. |

My wife and I were with RogerRoger (our son) and we all decided that the dark blue Corsair was our favorite WWII fighter.
The Bearcat was a close 2nd place however. Always great to watch Steve Hinton fly the Bearcat !! We all thought the Vietnam demo was awesome. We were at show center next to the photographer's pit. I could imagine that being near a hot LZ felt and sounded something like that. Overall the whole show was awesome. Really great to see the F-100, Migs & the 262. Great selection of classic warbirds too ! Great work guys !! I think I got some DNA on the Albatross. I spent a lot of time lusting over it......going to have to get a seaplane rating some day. |

Charlotte's Chariot II in the above spread used to be owned by Dan Fordice in Vicksburg, MS. Served in the same SF unit in the MS ARNG back in the day for a few years. Not sure if he still owns it or sold it...I remember seeing a youtube video of him having the original pilot of the named plane at a airport and he flew her into there and let him get up in it. Pretty neat....

This one has a 55" wingspan, but isn't quite ready to fly. Soon though.

Since this became a Focke Wulf thread I will leave this sad picture right here. Guy here at BTR restored it. Few weeks back the guy driving it landed long and did this. Now we get to hear about the messed up EMAS every time we listen to the ATIS.
I'll sneak a few pics the next time I'm in that hangar. RC |

You're looking at an aircraft equipped with a firefighting system. The "snorkel" is what sucks up water to replenish the tank, when hovering over a water source like a pond, lake, ect. I'm guessing by the look of the cockpit, a Ka-32? |
