Reading, PA Air Show 1960

Thu Mar 03, 2005 9:33 pm

Did any of our intrepid travellers happen to be present at this airshow/fly-in...? On-Mark aviation brought in one of their exec. Invaders that year in an orange/white paint job. If anyone can remember seeing this plane, would you by any chance know the N# it wore? Even better, would any of you happen to know anyone who worked on/flew these exec. versions?

Better yet, is there anyone out there who knows of some good books/articles about On Mark? I have wondered about their story for a whole...

I have a few books containing material, including Scott Thompson's "Douglas A-26 and B-26 Invader" and "Foreign Invaders" by Dan Hagedorn & Leif Hellström. Further IIRC I have some stuff from old Air Classics, Wings and IMPS USA.......

And I have dozens of vintage slides (60's and early 70') of both civil and military On-Mark conversions. (I will check the slides for your bird, TJ)

Excellent Martin. When looking at your On-Mark slides could you note the N# on those who are pressurised Marksman versions? You probarbly know that are those with DC-6/7 style cockpit instead of the usual cockpit!
