Hope you enjoyed yourself. Nice shots!
Just one thing, though... The aircraft you identified as a B-25 is actually and A-26. ------------------------------------- CHEERS!! David Chapman KVNY/KCNO |

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Jul-01-02 AT 01:27AM (EDT)[/font][p]Hey Towman, great pics! Also, nice shots of El Capitan Resevoir, Rattlesnake (I hate that mtn, takes too long in the pattern for 27R) and those vintage a/c over by Safari Aviation.
27L is fun isn't it? Do any slips to a landing? :P I fly the pattern for that rwy whenever I'm up for some t&g's. http://forums.flightsim.com/dcforum/...ec4d748c8c.jpg KSEE-KMYF |

Nice shots! Lucky it's only $78 where you live in the States...other places it's too much. Love the vintage planes too.

Those were excellent shots! I enjoyed them VERY much and appreciate the narration. :D
That Warrior looks very similar to Nels Anderson's Archer II! Great planes. Regards, http://home.earthlink.net/~snyders2000/A4.jpg |
