Jerry, I'll always remember that Bearcat climbing like a bat outa hell. Do you recall even earlier days of the US Navy A-7 Corsair dragging in low almost to a touch & go? Had to be in the late 60s or very early 70s. Real cool.

Larry,
I've got slides stashed away somewhere. Might take a bit to find 'em. It's been so long!
Dick kept the Wildcat in Florida in the Winter and Windham Airport in the Summer.
That was back in the Warbird's International days. George Enhorning with the P-51 and the F8F, Dick with the Wildcat, Tora Zero and Kate. Tom Rudder with the Harvard. It was great! I remember Dick taking off from Meriden in the Wildcat and as he did a max climb take-off, George took off under him in the Bearcat going like the hammer's of Hade's!
That Tora Zero is down under now after spending some time in the UK.

Jerry, your dating yourself. We still have a Warbirds International document bag. For a long time our N3N logbooks were in it.

Now I will date myself. In my room as a kid I had a Bud Davidson photograph of "passion wagon" that was signed by george. Wish I still had it.

I'm dating myself!!!? :lol:

Who's the one with the WI bag? :roll:

I was at Oxford Airport when Budd showed up with several large prints of Passion Wagon taken at TICO. Nice head-on stuff. I think one was even the cover of Air Classics TICO coverage issue.
George was thrilled. I wish I had just one of them!
Those were the days! :cry:
