Pretty sure that yellow-tail B-17G is "Fuddy Duddy" based at Orange County and I see it parked there all the time. Owned by a retired USAF general, William Lyons, who made his money building housing subdivisions.

47Hammer, you must not be too far away from me. When I lived in Van Nuys I used to love when they had the air show and they'd buzz the house. I would always take the Monday off after the show to watch the bulk of the aircraft leave. I have some video of the last time a B-29 came through Van Nuys, fly overs of the B-2 and a B-1B and B-52 high speed pass. It's really cool to see them in action up close. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

Thanks to Andy for sharing this with me. A very touching video of a Legacy and his plane. It's a must watch.

Andy & Rick,

Thanks for sharing that moving tribute to the P-51 and its
original pilot. It's so nice to see and hear something
positive & reaffirming about military service for a change...... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

That seems like a very close and warm family. So nice to see.

Re: Aircraft pics
 

I could watch that stuff all day! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif Thanks for posting. Rick, I've got an incredible story about WWII and these here Mustang's, I guarantee the hair on the back of your neck will stand at attention. I look forward to sharing it with you. LateBrake U2 said you would eat it up. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/drool.gif

Re: Aircraft pics
 

If it is regarding P-51's, you can bank on it. Even though only part of a P-51, the hair did that very same thing when Charley started his '55 "Final Objective" at Steve Sandlins party. The sound of that RR Merlin is like no other.
