As requested in an earlier post here are some pics of the Warbirds (and soon to be Warbirds) from Andrews AFB this past weekend:

Thanks for the look at Andrews.
It doesn't look like it was too crowded from your pics.

Also enjoyed the look back to Reading 1995/97 in your webshots.

Thanks for the kind words. I was on the first bus to enter the base on sunday morning. Practically had the flightline all to myself!!!

I will be putting some more up when I get the time from Reading. Love those "older" airshow photos.

Thanks for posting the Andrews Pictures. I wish I was there.
I love the Webshots in your albums of the past Reading shows, but isn't the photos in your 1997 album actually from 2003 MAAM WWII Weekend?
Planes of Fame was touring that year and that's the first time I can remember seeing their Corsair and Mealton's P-4T "Hun Hunter" at the event.
thanks for the look back.

I was going to say, I don't think that was Reading 1997 because I went to the Grissom ARB Air Show in 1997 and Memphis Belle still had the "movie" nose art and distress paint on her. I don't think she was redone until about 1999 or 2000.

Hun Hunter was still under restoration in '97. The first flight not until '99.

Hmmm,

Whats the only difference in the 1995 reading pictures to more recent ones?

THE SUN IS OUT!

The tent is ready, here we come!



Im also trying to figure out why the FAA needs a Global Express, and they are trying to add on airspace system user fees
