Tigercat latest:
Rod Lewis's 2 are there, JC's is out on the ramp at Van Nuys awaiting test hop this evening.

Excuse my ignorance, but just for my information, who is "JC"? Is "JC's" Tigercat the one that I have seen Clay Lacey fly recently?

If this helps, as of May 13, one Wildcat, one Duck and one Hellcat (the Friedkin's) are at Chino and ready to go for the airshow.

Sorry but the idiotic girly man Governator here has imposed a new $50 tax on every airshow photo taken in California that is posted on the internet. I don't think that the WIX can afford it....

If it moves, tax it. If it doesn't move, subsidize it.

Yup, JC's is out on the ramp at VNY, serviced, fueled & ready to rock :)
I'm guessing it will show up at Chino in the latter part of the afternoon on Friday
