Almost a good picture of the "other" shiny C-47. Did you get a pic of the new nose art? You might have gotten a picture of the beautiful girl I was talking about..Miss Rodeo Texas was visiting with a good friend of mine and is really a pretty young lass.
Yes, I got a picture of the other C-47. I was saving it for today's posts. As far as Miss Rodeo Texas - She seemed like a pleasant young lady, and I was grateful y'all had her more tastefully dressed than some of the others that show up on the board. However, I did not take any photos. I also noticed that those leading her around snubbed most of the L-bird types... I guess maybe because they all looked alike.
Here is y'all's C-47:
And a closeup of the nose for you:
It was a great fly-in. If I had one complaint, it would be that I thought the ramp could've been a little bit better organized and a little less spread out at the same time. For instance, in the picture of y'all's C-47 above, the Jeeps were in the way for a good photo of the whole aircraft. Also, you'll see later how far the L-types were spread out.
More later!
