Hoping for flybys of the Lanc and Cat .here is a pic I took of our 4 birds with the Red nosed 51 visitor

I saw White 14 back in 2005 and 2006 at Thunder over Michigan. It was exciting watching it and the P-47s playing tag over the reinactors. Beautiful field, I would love to fly up there during the summer. If I come up there, I will buy you a cold one pbfoot.

Very nice Pb. I wasn't aware of any Bf109s with actual war experience outside of museums.
