Here are some pics from Saturday including one of Spooky. DMAFB is not the best place for flying photos ans from the crowd line you face south angainst the sun and the active runway is very close, also by mid-day high thin clouds came in and it was overcast. Therefore I only have few shots flying.

Is that an F-86 in the background of the P-51 photo? If so, do you have more of that plane?

Nice pics. Thanks.

One slight correction to one of your captions. I spent 3 1/2 lovely years there and it's KirTland AFB.

Thanks Mudge for the correction.

The P-51 Lady Alice according to the Warbird Registry and the Warbird Directory belongs to Lady Alice Corporation of Wilmington DE.
By the way Scott if desire you can use this photo in the registry until you get a better one.

The North American F-86H Sabre (203-297) USAF 53-1525 in the background on the Mustang photo is the one on display at the Pima Air & Space Museum. I did not get a photo of it at D-M Saturday. Below is an 1988 photo at the museum. If an up to date photo is desired I will get one next week

I have one other warbird photo from the show it is:
North American T-6G Texan 168-254 USAF 49-3190 N884TA
