Memories of Grandpa

Postby dglove23 » Wed Jun 23, 2010 4:53 pm

My grandfather was a Korean War-era fighter pilot, flying the F-86 Sabre for USAF. Although I never got to see him much, this shot reminds me of what he gave to our country and how his actions made him my lifelong idol.

I just downloaded this nifty little sky package for FSX, and saw a shot in there that looked awfully familiar.  ;D

Thanks for the conversion job, and welcome to the site!  8-)
