Caribou at Oshkosh

Here's a cool video of CFM's Caribou flying at Oshkosh. The crew chief on this flight is the same crew chief this Caribou had during Vietnam. He pops out with the American Flag at the end. "Caribou Bob"

As of last summer, there was a whole herd of Caribou corroding away in the salt air at Pen Turbo's facility at Cape May, NJ.
