[quote="Robbie Stuart"]Sure would love to see a B-23 Dragon fly again. Got some great memories from our old CAF bird. :cry:

Other than a stack of $$$ what would it take to make the CAF B-23 airworthy again?

Charlie, your B-23 picture may have been at Madera. I have pictures of this plane polished up at the Livermore show in 1992.

1989 Madera Airport, Gathering of Warbirds. (N747M USAAC 39-33)

Information on the display card:

"This aircraft was delivered to General "Hap" Arnold, Commander of the United States Army Air Corps on 27 July 1939 at Clover Field, Santa Monica, California: Operated by Hughes _ool Company 1945-1951.

Present owner is World Airways, Inc. with Headquarters at the Oakland International Airport, California.

Roger,

I went back over my pics, yeah, the B-23 was at Madera, but the A-26 was definitly taken at Watsonville.

I've got a pretty basic website of alot of my pics I've taken over the years. I slowly add to it when I have time.
