Hi Roman

There were two 'Forts at the GOML 2007.

'Yankee Lady' and 'Memphis Belle'. I havent seen the 'Belle' configured Fort before (the original is still some way off completion at Dayton) and I have to say that its weathered look was particularly effective.

It would have been nice to see both these great warriors in the air at the same time with an accompanying escort of 'Stangs, but it wasnt planned into the airshow schedule..

Anyway...on with pics...

Thanks guys.

Heres a few of John Mohre and his very imprtessive Stearman routine. I believe he has something like 15000...yes, fifteen thousand hours...on type. And it certainly shows with the routine he puts before a very appreciative crowd.

We had two P-38 Lightnings at the GOML. 'Ruff Stuff' and 'Glacier Girl'. The noise from those Allisons was something else !.

And then we have the unmistakeable shape of the Mitchell. Jim Terry brought along his 'Pacific Prowler'....had a fantastic flight in this one on the Friday Morning !...and the second one was 'Axis Nightmare.

Gary - in that row shot of 51's, the H stands out like the 'proverbial' in a woodpile.
