Dear 80TH Head Hunters...

[mthrockmor]

This past week took me to Southern California so of course I had to run by Planes of Fame, Chino, California. I took dozens of pics to include some P-38 action. I'm guessing you twin-boom drivers have all of those you can stand. Here's one though. They had a bench dedicated to the 80th. Thinking of those annoying -38s turning like Spit 5s I took a picture. My thought was I'd trade it for one pass at Mir, he at less then 145mph, flaps and gear down. He needs to be at 5k though, no vulching.

If you want this pic you must sacrifice Mir. Or PM me, whichever comes first. Or a pic of your hottest housewife. And no, nekked pics of Dadkev do not count.

Met Steve Hinton soon afterwords pulling dipsticks on same 38.  Real nice approachable guy for being a rockstar in my eyes.

I call BS here, that B-38 is in pristine condition, clearly no 80th HH flew this plane It must be photo shopped I can tell because I seen many photo shops in my time.

*puts on tinfoil hat and walks away screaming conspiracy.

Sadly that bird was painted as an 80th HH 38 prior to the current markings.  It used to be based in Minnesota too back when Planes of Fame had a spot at Anoka County Airport.  It's a 38J too.  Kinda miss her.  Thankfully we've got an 80th marked 38L in Minnesota now though 

Now about Plaz's wife....

[mthrockmor]

I'll post the picture tonight after work. As for the hot "wife" picture, I'm OK that you cropped your wife out. What's her friends name?

Boo, this map has me getting shot down all the time, nearly like you're describing.

You can never have enough 38 pics btw.

[mthrockmor]

Too much is never enough?

One pic was of a recon version. Ok, I'll post those as well when I get home tonight.

As promised "The Bench" Chino, California...Planes Of Fame


Up close, recon version


Info on this version. Never even knew it existed


Step back shot, furthest I could get without losing view


The spinney thing


Put this together complete with wings found on Guadalcanal. This bird actually saw combat


The history, rare among rare


The PonyD just looks fast standing still


A6M(?), clean bird didn't catch which version


This P-51D went for a ride shortly after I left. Turds wouldn't let me climb in back!


Recon version of the F7F


This bird saw combat. Made a couple kills, lost engine and landed in Russia, recovered in 2003


Fw-190A4, I think. Great bird, 4X20mm setup


Yak something or other haha

[Devil 505]

Great pics Boo. 
FYI the 190 is an A-8 and the The Yak is a Yak-3.
