Anyone else attend the Alliance Air Show this year? Gorgeous weather all weekend long. With military participation still curtailed, there were LOTS of warbirds and classics! Here's what I can recall from memory:

WARBIRDS:
B-25 "Super Rabbit"
A-26B
P-51D two-seater
P-51D "Miss America" racer (COOL!!!)
A-1E
P-40N
FM-2
O-2
O-1
L-4
A Cub-like L-Bird wearing Italian markings (any ideas?)
PT-23
Harvard Mk.III
C-47 x 2
AC-47 "Spooky"
C-1A "Miss Belle"
Bell 47
T-33 x 2
T-38 (owned by Ross Perot, Jr)
UH-1 Huey
Spitfire 90% scale replica

CLASSICS:
Cessna 195
Ercoupe (gleaming NMF!!!)
Davis parasol x 2 (rare and nice, one of these was the last one built)

Eventually I'll have static pix of most of these. Still sorting that out.
