    Good thing they kept you guys a quarter mile + 10 feet away. Who knows what kind of destruction you might have wrought without that extra 3 1/3 yards of separation.

    Not only the B-25, but the Berlin Airlift C-54 arrived a little after Noon. Both will be here all week, the C-54 will be open for visitors over Labor Day weekend, the B-25 is offering flights. Photos to follow...

    The C-54 is a beauty and I saw the B-25 buzz in and out and in again. I love the pop-pop-pop of those engines when they crank up and land, just so old school. :D
    Looking forward to the photos. I saw you on the tarmac as I watched through the fence.Turned out to be a beautiful day.

    A few new shots






    I took a few dozen business jets this week, what is really amazing is the amount of
    general traffic and biz jets I get but feel they lack punch compared to the stuff
    that goes in and out of the AAM. Gulfstreams are just too common when your
    looking at a C-54, C-47, P-47 etc.... but I do like the UA paintscheme on the
    Casino charter
    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    Cant beat those old birds!!! Just the fact that they are flying 60 plus years is just very cool.
    You are watching history when you see them.

    Bizjets would be more appealing if they had better paint jobs.

    One of the few exceptions. Most of them look like they get painted at the Winnebago factory.

    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    On Friday, AAM pilot Dan Dameo returned with the Avenger. He had been at an airshow/open house in Maine...





    While he was there, a guy who flew Avengers in the war autographed it:
