It's always a GREAT event and I'm really looking forward to seeing Scott Yoak's beautiful P-51 Mustang "Quick Silver":cool:

You should - you may have a Mouse sighting!

Quicksilver was at the Monroe show down here last November, a gorgeous airplane!

According to this local Patch link posted today, it looks like the American Airpower Museum is scheduled to launch a formation flight of historic B-25 Mitchell bombers and World War II escort fighters for a tribute flight near the World Trade Center and Statue of Liberty on Labor Day also. :cool:

Then I had the honor of spending some time with Mr. Julius Freeman, an original member of the Tuskeegee Airmen and his son who is a Vietnam vet. They are both just absolutely great folks.

This last one is kind of funny. So, I decided I'd let my 6 year old son "Play" with one of my Camera's today. As I was going through the pics when I got home, I came across this one. I just laughed because, as I feared, my 6 year old son showed up his old man today! I can't wait for him to get a little older so we can go to lots more shows!
