Top - Goldilocks pilots in 1962 (photo by Geoff Bennett)
Bottom - CHAA hooligans in 2012 (I'm at the very top standing on the right wing )
The only thing we couldn't recreate was the foot sticking out of the bottom access panel. The smoke oil tank is currently installed right above said panel.

The original 20216 is still flying in those markings, and the owner was planning on bringing it all the way from BC to our 'Gathering of Harvards and Heroes' last June, but the plans fell through.

I'm really hoping to recreate this Goldilocks shot someday with our 20436 in the foreground

Who is the Skyraider pilot?

[C VEICH]

In the 1939 pic it has a 3 bladed prop. In the newer pic, from that angle it looks like it has a 2 bladed prop. It's also hard to confirm from the shadow on the ground. Yes?...No???

The Hawk still retains its correct 3-blader.
