Both of us went. We were there as "posers". Mrs Mudge was far more popular than I was. She's a bit prettier and a lot younger than me. Looked great in her Navy whites.
It was June 1-2-3.

Welcome to the board WINNING... Hope you enjoy your stay here.

Why do I find this oddly humerous??
BTW if I'm ever a mod I will be MOD ZULU and my avatar will say "Don't touch my junk!"

It was supposed to be that way. It certainly was a novel way to being posting to interrogate you like that.

Sorry, no. 'Warbirds' as a term dates to a book on the Great War, at least. Air Classics may well have had a role in redefining the term to one of the modern uses of it, but it would be a brave lexicographer to ascribe one initiating group or organisation or person.

No pictures. Someone had the camera in her big tote bag and the cap came off a bottle of water and the camera was FUBAR. Cost $90 to get it repaired, but it's one of my favorite cameras.

They did indeed, and I just assumed it was understood in that context.

It was my grandpa's and he gave it to me on my 18th birthday. He bought around 1915.
Sadly when our house burned down it got wet from the fireman doing their thing and it
needs some serious restoration work whick I will get done someday.
