Marc, The 20th will be held at Iowa Point. I've been trying to log on to the T-2 site, but it seems to be crashed.

Pisis, Just out of curiosity, what is the meaning behind "S!"? Not being mean, Just asking. Oh, and Mullahy, still waiting on my phone to ring!

Actually something similar has happened before. It was on a slightly smaller ship, with 14" guns, and 43 peopler were killed. That was written of to a hot gun cook off. That was during WWII. The name of the ship escapes me at the moment. In those snapshots, you see the phone talker on the 05...

I haven't been on the site for awhile, Did this question ever get answered definitively? I still say the 17.

With a lavender under belly, and lipstick? I think not!

P-40, because it's got character B-17 G, again character F4U If you don't understand, get your eyes checked. FW 190-D See above F 104 starfighter I'm not sure why, I just like it. SR -71 It has the same beauty as a great white shark. It just looks menacing. I saw one in person at the...

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I had been the first to catch that!!! Oh well, Everyone has an opinion. Just like the arguement between the Anton and the Dora, Which the Dora won handily, if I remember correctly........

I Look at the B-29 like a relief pitcher in Baseball. The B-17 slugged it out for the first 8 innings, Then in the top of the 9th, the B-29 takes the mound, and walks away with the win. Again, I'm just voicing my opinions here. Opinions. Everyone has one, and all of them stink. One thing the...

Yes I can. Look, I have a ton of respect for the Lancaster and the men that flew it, and the Mosquito was a fine plane as well. The B-29 got the big headlines in the closing days of the war, mainly because of two bombs. While the B-29 shortened the war in the Pacific, the Japs were already...

The B-17 called Sentimental Journey Landed at our local airport yesterday, and will be on display until Monday!!!!! I'm going to be spending all day saturday looking at her!!!! I Promise to take a gazillion pictures!! Post up any specific picture requests, and I'll make a list. I know I'm...

The #2 Turret is sealed off. It's considered a Grave site

The basic structure of the turret is still intact. The armor plate ranges from 6 to 18" thick. The practice round is still squibbed in the barrel. All the soft structures inside are destroyed. All electrics, electronics and hydraulics are gone. The entire turret from the powder mags all the way...
