Preparation for the Yankee Air Force Musuem's Air Display

Thu Jul 29, 2004 9:12 am

In preparation for the Yankee Air Force Musuem's Air Display I am compiling one of my lists of attending aircraft, just so I won't need to as I try and ID the aircraft in my photos afterwards.

The YAF website for the show has a decent list, but there are a few gaps that the WIX may be able to help to fill.

#1: Beechcraft T-34B Mentor - Joe Pardi

#2: AT-6D - George Fonesca

#3: T-6 - Ron Staley - "Little Texan"

#4: SNJ-5 - Dave Folk

#5: SNJ-5 - Tim Gillian

#6: CCF Harvard - Barry Smith - Is this one N7804B B.L. Smith?

#7: SNJ-5 - Dan O'Connor - Is this one N7095C Brian D. O'Connor?

#8: T-28 - Indiana Aviation Museum - I found their website, but no s/n listing.

#9: SNV-1 Valiant - Duane Packer - "Bouncin' B"

#10: Yak-52TW - John Shuttleworth

In all cases I have tried Googling and checking the FAA database as well as other sources but have not been able to come up with a s/n, c/n or c/r.

Any tips anyone? Once the list is done after the show I will of course pass it off to Scott to be added to the downloads section.

Regards,

Mike
