Nice pics (echo).
The sight of 3 bearcats is something we might not see for a long time here in Europe.
Thanks for posting!

Great stuff.
I’d like to see more Ducktacular shots. 😉 Jug drivers welcome too, Dan…

Oshkosh
Yep…. lots of sponsor stickers on the Dornier!!
The Duck was one of the big highlights this year… for me at least… good looking machine! I like the short ring cowl too!
Another main highlight for me was helping a couple of veteran P47 pilots up into the cockpit of the Thunderbolt. These former pilots were so excited to sit in it again! One pilot said he had not sat in one for 60 years!

Thanks PL.
I was vaguely aware that somebody had to be building turboprop engines, but I thought real engine companies stuck to real engines… 😀
The application of sticker depends on the transmission of funds too. That (lovely) airplane is worse than a Formula 1 cart for changing schemes!

Not surprising, since it is powered by three Pratt & Whitney engines!

Grat stuff Dan, thanks for sharing.
Has the Dornier been zapped with a P&W dependable engines sticker? Why?
Great to see a shortcowl Duck too.
Cheers
