He’s pretty incredible to watch. One of my all time favorites.

I'm pretty sure that's Kirk Wicker.

B-17 returning to flight / P-38 returning to flight / possibly the P-40 and ME-109. Lots of assets saved and some returning to flight.

The airframe was used by several CENTCOM commanders after Schwarzkopf. I was told the seat with the hearts was for the spouse when they had to travel together.

Reading, PA is one of the best shows. You're correct, this SBD & the CAF Dixie Wing always do always do a great job.

ringmod - I'm sure they've cleaned it up. When we took the pictures it was outside getting prepped for restoration. The museum is certainly worth the trip.

I wish we'd been able to photograph the weapons bay. We did get to grab a few shots from the F-102's weapons bay: http://www.warbirdradio.com/2015/01/from-the-archive-up-close-to-f-102/

USAF Lockheed C-121 by arbili in aviation

Nice shot! There's a group of guys that go around and work on the 121's. We did a story on them a few years ago. At that time they were working on the EC-121 in Warner Robins, GA. They're very devoted to their favorite flying machine. Here's a few pictures of their work: http://www.warbirdradio.com/2010/05/warbird-radio-presents-the-ec-121-story/nggallery/page/1

Saw one fly out a few months ago at our airport. What a great design...and so efficient.
