| Naval Aviation Ok, I know some of you like the naval aircraft, so here we go.
If you look closely at the 3rd pix, of the Hellcat and Corsair, you can see the Chino Flying Wing take to the skys.

| Wildcats!!!!!!! I like the paint pattern with dark blue. It looks happier. The light gray is just plain depressing.

| Something for the Brits I would be remiss in not providing some pix for the Brits. Heres the Hurricane. It doesnt look as glamorous as the Spit, but it does look business like.

| P38's The P38 is my favorite plane.
The final pix is the P38 going into a low altitude roll........... I only got one pix as I had to watch it....... as with everyone in the airshow, we collectively had to reassure each other what we had seen was true. No, even though this is California, we did not sing Kumbay-ya and hug each other.
