A new shot, as of today. We disguised ourselves for Halloween at the base and the theme was Viet-Nam.

Here I am ready to take on Charlie. :lol: :lol:

This is about the third time I've signed up to the WIX forums, after a couple of failed attempts/lost passwords etc, so thought this might be a good place to start posting!

Me with a WAR FW190 at an airshow in Scotland:

Okay, I give in!
Here's my mug!

Image

Taken by my son three years ago.
I think I'm looking at someone who stole my chocks!

Here's another with my family and grandsons at the Corsairs Over Connecticut show in 2005.

Image

At least I look a little happier!

Blue skies,
Jerry

Was digging through my old photos.

Here's me, in Sept. of 1998 at the Naval Aviation Museum at NAS Pensacola Fl. while I was attending "C" school (NEC 1596, I think that was it).

I think this is the cleanest SPAD you will ever see. Doesn't seem right, does it?

About three years ago, Mikael (Mike) Östberg and I published a monograph on the Swedish licence-built BT-9, known as the ASJA (later SAAB) Sk 14. It wasn’t until the following summer that I was able to get to Sweden and get up close and personal with the only one in existence. In spite of appearances, I was smiling, but my wife, after 40 years of trying, has never been able to push the shutter button when the picture is there to take!
