Somehow, I don't think that's the case.

Doubtful. Wishful thinking they're pondering the backlash during the break for the airshow.. pop2

So...can anyone tell us after all the drama...was Yanks open during the show? Were the employees and friends of Flying Tigers an their ramp enjoying the show?


Yanks was closed but there was a cookout with adult beverages on the backside of the hangar, I guess so they could look at the sky and the planes. See below for proof.

There were some people that went into Flying Tigers in the morning, but I did not see anyone sitting on the porch watching the show. I also did not see any fuel trucks driving around from them or line guys. Where did they move all of the planes on the ramp where the crowd line was located?

A few more now that I have my photos up on Flickr.

All of these are why you should go to Planes of Fame's show if you haven't.

Ditto that! The atmospherics behind the N9M really makes it pop! Superb detail! Awesome capture! The 2 Mustangs really grab you as well. More excellent shots in the F6F thread! Thanks CJAM!

TAdan & Airnutz, thank you so much!

Some "people pictures" I'm guessing everyone around here knows who is pictured so I'll spare you the captions.

Wicked. I do enjoy seeing pilot photos, and that silhouetted Steve shot is a classic!
