This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

That would be 44-27231 Steve Hinton ferried it up from Chino a year or two back.

I'll be bringing the AD5 Skyraider and the T6. I believe Les Heikkila will also be bringing his P51 from Creve Coeur.

Looking forward to it Eric. You drive one beautiful AD.

Any word on any BT-13's?

Last year the only one that showed up was Duane Packard and his wife with their BT-13.

Hopefully, more will come this year!

Paul, Is it that you would like to see more BT's or hang out with BT people?

John Drews out of Watertown, WI owns a -13, but usually comes to OSH in his big, yellow Timm N2T (parks down in the antique/classics section). I know of at least one more BT project going on (in the Wausau, WI area).

In other words, are you trying to make contact with vibrator owners (pun intended :wink: )?

Just diaapointed in the turn out last year of the BT's ( check out my site BT-13.org)

I grew up around the BT, as my grandfather owned one and I flew a lot with him in it, so it is a "family" aircraft if you want to call it that.

Everyone in my family, loves those BT's

If you have information or pics on the project, could you forward me it? Serial#, etc. etc. for my site?

Thanks! Yes, I love Vibrators, ( pun intended too! )
