I believe the one you have listed as NL2825B is incorrect. She does however appear to be in the background.

Here's a few of mine of Briefing time, from 1974 in Medina, OH, then 1979 at Caldwell-Wright, NJ and I think McGuire AFB (both June 1979).

I think the first time I saw "Briefing Time" was at Oshkosh in the mid-1980's maybe, just after she received her new overall olive drab paint. I never knew she had carried that name since the early 1970's! Excellent photos yet again.

I paid a whopping $50 to ride in the top turret of "IRON LAIDEN MAIDEN" during an airshow in Enid, OK. We flew about 40 minutes and in formation with a TBM and an F4U. I could swivel the turret 360 degrees and raise and lower the guns. Took some good air to air that day. A ride I will never forget!

That was a good price, affordable. Lets see, if I have a Bomber and want to make money to support it, do I offer "experiance rides" for 450.oo+ dollars, and maybe get a few, or do I offer 50 dollar rides. I wonder how many folks would line up for a 50 dollar ride in a bomber or any warbird?

Here are a couple shots of one of our "local" usual suspects, "Killer B". Very Clean bird, shot at Albert Whitted airport, St Petersburg in 2005 I think

I've never seen or hear of Tootsie before. Is she still around? The registry stops at 2002.
