    Wings Over Houston 2011

    Here are the first of the photos from WOH 2011. I took these with a little digital camera. I will have more once the film is processed. I will have to make them smaller. A little help please. I atached the smaller photos but cannot remove the larger ones.

    Nice shots DB. I've got a 1/48th Harvard (T6/Texan) waiting to be built in the near future - not sure on colour scheme yet though.

    It's my father's favorite plane after the B25. The NAS Pensacola always looks good.

    Is that an original Zero or a replica?

    It is the real thing. It is based at Elington field during the fall and winter. I have a couple of shots of it in the air. I will post more photos soon.

    Good stuff! That's the only one of the four Zeros in the US that are flying I haven't photographed...yet. Is that Yak-52 based down there? I did a double take on that one because there is one with a very similar paint scheme at Santa Paula. I had to go look to see. It's not the same aircraft, but the paint schemes are similar enough to make me wonder if they used the same paint shop.
