Looks like Tim's B25 has some new markings. Do you have an over all picture? Was the nose art all that was changed?

Hi Chuck,

I can't view your photos... :? Could you check your photobucket account, please?

Thanks!

Ben

When I tried to go to a picture directly it said they were down for scheduled maintenance until 4 AM MST. They should be back up any time now.

a drogons head nose art was painted on Tim's B-25 as well as a banner for for the magazine painted on the tail. I dont think I have any other pictures of it than the one I posted. I too checked the photobucket site and it is supposed to be back up soon. One thing that I did notice last night is that my pictures posted in different sizes on the forum. They are aall the same size on photobucket but appear to be smaller or larger relatively here.

Today is supposed to be very windy with gust over 30mph from the north. That will be a direct crosswind and will cause major problems for most airshow performers and aircraft flying in and out. Tomorrow is forcast to be the same.

Scott turned on a feature recently that resizes the pictures automatically. It helps make the forum more readalble where there are many pics.

Excellent photos Chuck! Thanks for sharing.

I really wish I could have made it over this year to see Glacier Girl, just couldn't get the time off from the office.

It's unfortunate the wind conditions have deteriorated. Usually the weather is much fairer for Sun 'n Fun.

Hey Chuck, Those are nice pics, thanks for putting them up. It makes it nice for those of us that can't be there - to be able to see those great airplanes. On another subject, how are you related to Ronnie Gardner? I have a good bit of time with him in the B-23 (Crew Chief) & a couple flights in the backseat of the "Red Nose" P-51. Thanks again.
Best Regards
Robbie Stuart :D

My son did... :D

Excellent picture of your son! Memories for a lifetime. I still remember my first airplane ride when I was very young. My uncle tried to scare my brother and I by doing a tight turn so that we were looking straight down at the ground....but we loved every minute. And my lifelong interest in airplanes started at that point.
