YES!

Welcome, that would be a great shot. Something that has yet to be posted. A bunch of us were together all day Saturday and our pictures are hard to tell the difference between them.

Yes, by all means, post the pics!

I'm especially curious how you got a photo of eight B-17s on the ground when you were flying in one of the eight. :wink: Just funnin' with you...

It was a great show. The Yankee Air Force has every right to be proud of what they pulled together. I hope the show was very successful for them...in terms of helping them rebuild from the fire. The weather couldn't have been any nicer and the crowds seemed large...especially on Saturday.

I can't wait for the DVD to come out.
