It is staging out of our city center airport for an airshow up north this weekend. On arrival, it did a high speed pass right on the deck, so that was a kodak moment! there were hundreds, maybe thousands of people on hand for the arrival............

Aw man, a Lanc...

Nony, you make me miss the days when I was just down the road from the Arizona CAF. B-17s, B-25s, B-24s, sometimes a small squad of P-51Ds, and for special, a yearly overflight of WWI combat aircraft.

...But I got the AirTractor, don't I... :icon_cool:

This one is a rarity amongst bombers..truffle champagne caviar rare, as it is the only one flying on this side of the planet. Those 4 merlins sure make purty music!!!!
