Great picture and stories!

Bill, thanks for sharing the picture and so sorry about your friend Art. . I had read about the accident also more recently how the warbirds are now averaging 10 fatals per year. . It's serious business but unbelievable machines and commitments to restore and fly them!

Rob, a salute to your grandfather and his bomber squadron! . Do you have any pics or anything you can share from his bomber command days? . Both my grandfathers were WW1 Canadian soldiers. . I'm fortunate to have saved one of their kit-bags from being tossed by my grandmother in the early 70's. . No firearms but his helmet and all are in it incl. diary and letters from Mother.
