Scott - did you get the B-45 update I sent?


Yes I did and thank you that was great. I'm trying to catch up with things after being down for 6 weeks (and I had a huge backlog before the computer died.)
I will try to update that section soon.


So long as you got it then great. No hurry at all - it's in safe hands. :)

everyone likes to dig on Air Classics but the "Warbird Report" and the "For the Wreckord" were my favorite articles. there's no doubt the magazine played a huge role in creating interest and saving so many of these old relics. Many more would have been scrapped.
And for some that didn't survive, like F2H-3 (not -4) 126417, "WR" was their last hurrah:

SR-71 Blackbird Registry has been updated with several new air frames listed. To my knowledge all existing airframes are listed in the registry now. If I missed any, let me know.

Working on the F-104 Starfighter registry which is taking far longer than anticipated...471 airframes total. I'm pretty sure the Italians preserved every F-104S ever built. :shock:

Took a break on the Starfighter registry update.
Currently working on the Texan registry but with over 1200 entrires it will take awhile and I will do it in chunks.
Currently I am working on the AT-6B section which is expanding from 14 entries to 133 :o

I sent an email with an update on a local AT-6A, two T-28s, and a L-21.
If you didn't receive them let me know and I can resend them.

Wow, history would have been different if there were that many Texans at the Alamo...

I resent.
What's really exciting is the local guy with two T-28s (a USAF marked A and red-white Navy B), who has apparently bought a lot of parts and assemblies...a enclosure near the airport has two "C" fuselages and several wings sets.

Always good to see more warbird activity in the area.

http://www.warbirdregistry.org/texanreg ... 12289.html is linked to "Bu. 27253 (R-04)" on the lead-in page, but should be "Bu. 27254 (Airworthy 2020)"

I just emailed you some new photos BTW of the aircraft in flight. SNJ-4 N48119 is in the markings of Glenview NAS based aircraft operated off the USS Wolverine and USS Sable training carriers in Lake Michigan during WW2.

I've updated the entry on your aircraft but I failed to find any e-mail from you (I've been having lots of trouble with getting e-mails) could you resend them to
