The bombers should be at Moffett today, and through the 18th. Sorry I can't go to chino with you guys, but I know what I'm doing this weekend. I went on the 909 last year, I think I'll ride on the Dragons Tail this year. It's nice living on Moffett Blvd. Every time they take off or land, they go right over my apartment. I got a ton of video from last year. I'm a very happy camper.

Glad to hear you'll be coming out! We'll have tons of flights going on this year there, so you'll be getting lots of opportunities for video! We'll be in at 3 PM this afternoon (Thurs) and there should be some P-51s escorting... maybe a little sooner actually.

P-51's too. I'm going home to get my camera. I also work under the flight path. This is going to be cool...

They were either really early or really late. I saw the B-24 and got some good video of it going over my work building, I also saw an F-18. I guess I'll catch the 909 tommorrow.

Ryan, in round dollars, how much to they ask for a ride in the B-17?

Cheers,

Lynn

There will also be Mustang rides available at Moffett Saturday and possibly Sunday...my number for -17 and -24 reservations is 386-451-9508...get them while the gettin' is good!

Hi Jim! Are the mustang rides scheduled on the same number? How much is a mustang ride?

Thanks,
O.P.

Give me a shout for the Mustang rides as well...I will put you in contact with the right person...$600 for about a 1/2 hour...well worth it.

Went over on saturday. Awesome day! Got the 909, Dragon's Tail and the Flying Dutchman firing up and taking off. The Ridge runner was there also. I'm going over today for a ride on the B-24. Jim hooked me up on the phone with the Ridge Runner for a ride at a later date. B-24 and P-51 in one weekend breaks the bank, but I'm definitely going soon. Thanks Jim, I'll see you this afternoon.

Jim, thanks bro, thank you collings foundation, thank you god. That kicked ass. That was better than the 909 last year. Open gun positions, open tail gun, everything just all hangin out there. Man, I'm still pumped. I'm not dissing the 909, but if it's your last 400 bucks, I'm ridin the Dragon and his Tail before I even eat.

sounds like you had a blast, I'm looking forward to my flight in Sept.
