This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

The battleship looked great, and the aircraft inside look beautiful. They had just finished an RF-8 and had a reunion of pilots that flew them.


The RF-8 is a replacement for the one they had when the hurricane hit. The original one (146898) was pretty heavily damaged and in danger of being scrapped, so it was taded out with another RF-8G at P-cola. 146898 is going to (if not already at) the OV-10 Association at Ft Worth. I am happy to hear that Battleship Park now has the replacement RF-8 on display. That is a great museum that I would like to visit more often.
