Old Crow

Postby expat » Sun Aug 30, 2009 11:19 am

We had an air display where I work this last weekend (EDLP). Old Crow was the star attraction. Due to very, very bad planning I only had a 55-200mm lens with me. So the aerial short were only fit for the bin. These are a bit repetitive, but it is not often you can get that close (perks of the job ;D)

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Not many years ago, both 'Bud' Anderson, in 'Old Crow' and Chuck Yeager in 'Glamorous Glennis' did a fly by.

Some nice close-ups there Matt. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Not sure about that. Anyone on this side of the Pond would say the Spitfire.

I don't think that would be the same Old Crow. There are at least two painted in this scheme to my knowledge. I'm not sure that any are Anderson's original aircraft. He flew several different P-51s with that name in the ETO.

After all those years, they've still got it.

I'm sure of that. Just like riding a bike. ;)
