Doesn't Boeing deserve credit for the A-26 and B-25 now? :wink:

Are Pyrotechnics an option? I don't know about you guys, but I haven't seen any good pyro for at least 10 years! And they kinda fit with the bomber theme.

Great to hear! It will be especially awesome to see a 3-ship P-51 aerobatic demo!

Won't be updated for a few more weeks.
The site is currently being judged for the 2009 ICAS Marketing Competition.
In the meantime we are also currently working on the redesign.
Thanks
Kevin

Also, 44-83785 - 'Shady Lady' is a static display supposedly maintained in airworthy condition at the Evergreen Aviation Museum, McMinnville, Oregon.

Not even close. She hasn't flown in years and need the spar ad done.
Unless she's sold do expect anything to happen to her.
I'd expect the gas station bomber to make it into the air first :shock: :twisted:


What's the deal with Evergreen International/Shady Lady? Further more, what happened to Miss Angela and will Boeing Bee ever fly, or is she just stored?

Nice pic Jack, but it's a bit big....;) :)

What about the several B-17 projects that are currently underway? Maybe these groups could be invited and set up some type of display? The ones I can think of off the top of my head are:

Planes of Fame's
Desert Rat
the Urbana/ Grimes folks
Swamp Ghost???????
