Small US Airshow pictures

These pictures are from a few years ago and I just ran across them on my computer so I thought I’d share.

This Cosair sadly crashed after an engine failure last summer killing the owner/pilot.

I think the Barbie III is out of Illinois, but I don’t know what collection or musuem it would be from.

Here I am back in my flight instructing days giving airplane rides. My folks are the lucky passengers on this flight.

And before someone says something, I know I’m off the centerline. I’m blaming it on the winds…..or the lack there of. Either way, it’s not my fault I swear. 😉

The nose of the B-25. I’m sure someone can remind me what model this is. It has the anti-ship cannon in the nose. Anyone?

Oops, screwed up the picture.

Sorry for the poor quality of these last few. Here’s the C-47.

Guess where the airshow is held? 😀

Continental Express brought in a B-1900D until they retired their fleet a few years ago.

Every year 2 F-15’s from the Massachusetts National Guard come in and put on a small demo. This pilot’s family lives locally and he’s a graduate of the high school. He and his buddy always get very low on the approaches which is a sure way to stop traffic on the road below. They’ve been low enough to kick up sand from the traps on the golf course at the other end of the field. 😀
