Steve T,
Thanks for including some shots of 'working girls' :wink:

Inspector--

Roger that...I especially enjoy seeing the "working girls" as well. (My dad and I used to drive round southern Ontario in search of them; we also made it a point to visit several tanker bases on a trip out West in '95, and to drop in at FPL when headed for Nova Scotia in '02.)

Actually I have an entire P'bucket album devoted to such Warbirds, which is where those TBM images came from; here's the link to the whole album...which also includes Trackers, Invaders, et cetera.

Does anyone have an ID for the Avenger and Bobcat hulks (in photo posted above) at Midland?

Thanks,
