My 15YO granddaughter just texted and asked me to send her a pic of “my favorite airplane.” I wanted to send her 34,000 pics of all of them, but in the interest of SMS overcharges, narrowed it down to this one.
I flew with the #Duggy crew into Rock Falls, IL for the “Last Time” DC-3/C-47 reunion, and then was on the flight deck as they flew the Warbird Island arrival to RWY 27 into Oshkosh. We waved at the #avgeeks on the Ardy and Ed’s patio as we slid overhead.
I took this yesterday at the EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. It is a B-25 with its crew. Shortly after I took this, they wheeled it onto the grass for takeoff.
Here are a few more photos from inside of Doc, at the #EAA#AirVenture, yesterday. The front and rear parts of the plane are pressurized but the bomb bays aren't. There is a tube going from the front to the back, to deal with that.
One of the coolest things @EAA is doing for this 70th anniversary #OSH23 is releasing a line of themed beers just for #avgeeks. New one each day, today is #warbirds
That time at Ardmore when the wind shifted and I found myself not far from the approach end of the runway the Roaring Forties were landing on.
Fun (if not particularly wise) shooting position!
