Great pix! Could I coax you into letting me use one of those Lightning pictures in my forthcoming book? (See a host of my previous threads for details)

I have a public domain P-38 picture already, but I like your Lightning in the invasion stripes better.

Anyway, PM for details if you are interested, or email me at fritz at boomandzoomgraphics.com

Green with envy for what must have been a great day in Chino!

Thats a pretty impressive showing.

I wish Chino would move to the DFW area though.

Hey, those are some great pictures. In one of them I counted 3 B-25's in the circuit (Pattern). Was that all the B-25's or were there more?

I think I'm going to have to go to Chino next year.

Cheers,

David
