This seems to be a favorite angle of mine as of late, but this time two C47's with the city of Knoxville in the background


Don't have a clue as to what this is but they stopped by for fuel and left so I couldn't inquire about it


Can't get enough of the C47's


The Stearman




The P47's again


And for the chopper fans "The Law"


they were suppose to bring a Huey but this is what we got. LOL! Pretty Helo none the less!
If you noticed in a few photos some vintage cars were there also, most 1937 and older, I guess they mistook this as a car show LOL!!!
But in the end all who attended learned something, and gained a new appreciation for the men and women of the world who make the commitment to serve thier respective countries and that my friends was the whole point of the days activites! Never forgetting!!

That plane you couldn't identify is none other than a Grumman Widgeon (Aka Gosling in RAF terms).

Thanks!! I thought it was neat how the landing gear retracted, but have been bashing my skull trying to figure out what it was! LOL!!

Lovely stuff Fret, I love the dear old Stearman.
Woodie is right about the Widgeon, but I have to ask one question where are the flashing lights on the cop-shop chopper?

Ozzy

The way the wheels retract is kinda cool. The Catalina employs the exact same method.

Again Very Nice Jeff

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Don't foget the Wildcat! But, then again... It's not a flying boat... As oh-so-many pilots found out during the war...
