Thanks for all the wonderful pics! Makes up for missing it this year...almost.


Who's beautiful and apparently well appointed PBY is that? Looks like a very authentic paint job but sans unit markings. What's the story there?

That would be Jerry Yagen's/Military Aviation Museum's PBY, repainted earlier this year I believe. ; )

Nice pictures Steve and Bill.

For Steve, there was also an Sikorsky SH-60 (in the background of one of your pictures-blue with yellow stripe) and if I recall correctly, also a yellow Raytheon T-6II in the CONA scheme. Just got home yesterday from Osh, haven't looked through my pix yet.......
