Many years ago (early 90’s) there was a flight of 31 Huey’s headed South across Los Angeles, the guy leading the flight decided to fly over the VA Hospital on Sepulveda Blvd. Looked ptretty damn impressive from where I was at the time & the sound was something else.
It was later reported that it took 3 days to get everyone in the VA pysch wards back under control…. oops..

I’m more intersted in WTF is holding up the roof supports in the middle of the doorway??

I always thought that Entente Cordiale went down well since we are all part of the EU and agree to disagree on everything, seemingly :p

Perhaps raising the Exocet debate from 1982 could repair relationships :diablo:

Maybe just moor HMS Conqueror next to it?

A26… preferably the one formerly owned Bill Timmer. I was crew on that beast for a few years & it was fast even for a “10 seat Mustang”. We took it to Madera one year & took off while there were 7 Mustangs & 2 B25’s in the circuit…

Caught & passed one B25, then the other, then promptly went past a flight of 3 Mustangs like they were Stearmans & were closing in the other 4 when the tower suddenly spoiled our fun with a transmission of “HEY! Knock it off! This isn’t Reno!” :rolleyes:

Had it parked at Van Nuys airshow one year & had placed a rather large clock inside one of the dummy 500 pounders hanging off the wing next top the 5in HVAR rockets. Was kinda fun watching as people used the wing as a sun shade & the expressions in their faces as they realised they could here something ticking directly above them..
Airport cops put a stop to that with “take the damn clock out of that bomb, we’re getting FAR too many reports for it to be funny any more”
Me? evil? yeah LOL!!

At least Bill’s A26 had engines from Aircraft Cylinder.. unlike 2 others I worked on that blew engines like they were going out of fashion…. (No, not *Sand Grenades*)
