Hope you enjoyed yourself. Nice shots!
Just one thing, though... The aircraft you identified as a B-25 is actually and A-26.

[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.

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.
