If ya wanna send those Dauntless shots to someone, Tom Gregory with the Lone Star museum would be a good place tostart, as I believe it's that museum's Dauntless and I believe he flies it....could be wrong tho.

The Dauntless is NX82GA with the Dixie Wing of the Commemorative Air Force @ http://www.dixiewing.org/ Try contacting them for the pilot's name.

WOW :shock: What a great bunch of photographs! :D The one's of the B-17 gatherning remind me of the old days around Hemet, Chester, Paso Robles, Porterville to name a few. When I was the ripe age of six or seven I would see that many B-17's lined up to go and drop retardant on fires. I can remember one fire we had 21 :shock: air tankers parked at Hemet by sun set. I think every B-17 that was tanked was parked there along with PB4Y2's, DC-4's, C-119's, and S-2's.
