No, the best part about Bearcat is that he's a great young man and gets to work on the real planes that we only get to fly in toonland

well that to, BUT as I've flown with him for a number of years, whn he gets xcited as I described, I kinda chuckle. I have alot of respect for him and his job. He did alot of research on hogs for my ex squad. I'll have to see if I have some of it still.

He was one of the few guys my age when I statred flying, and ever since then, we've been cyber friends.  

No disrespect was intended just playful jabs :)

Hmmm, I wonder if I've ever run into him before.  Fifi flew like a champ with us this spring in SoCal.

He's like 25-28 :headscratch:
He's been busy on a chog and F4F last I talked to him

FIFI is in a hanger away from the flight line museum and she's not avail all the time.  The CHOG has engine issues that ended up in a multi year, multi party law suit.  It is the most beautiful plane in the set and painted up in the Navy ace that flew it.

And I'm 29...  :headscratch:
Busy... that we can get, focusing on the present I'm hoping to go to Laughlin on wend with our MO to try round-10 with fixing our F6F (still rough running at max/TO power), which brings up the matter of thurs and the now-3-ship instead of 4-ship demonstration over Lake Arrowhead in the late afternoon/evening as pre-4th festivities (would you believe we arent gonna substitue our Spit14 for the F6F due to fuel/range cautions), and then friday were packing up to Truckee, CA (N.Lake Tahoe, Sierra Nevadas, 6.6k elevation, outside Reno in CA) for the weekend up there with them and their air show this year (they had an awesome little one last year that was a hit, this years should be even better) with the P51 and hopefuly my favorite of the two Texans if we finish up its annual and get in some test hops with it before friday.  Weather and schedules permiting, I'll be home sunday evening with the ac.

FIFI is in a hanger away from the flight line museum and she's not avail all the time.  The CHOG has engine issues that ended up in a multi year, multi party law suit.  It is the most beautiful plane in the set and painted up in the Navy ace that flew it.

She gets around, they have a great team this year.  Our zero, mustang and SNJ5 spent a good amount of time in the sky with her this spring on tour in this corner of the states.  (http://youtu.be/692xYiyhWs8)  If I'm not mistaken, I understand it as a big "complex" of multiple "entities" at Cavanaugh, the B24 and B29 there being one.  A good volunteer will get around though at a place like that... they always do.


If anyone will be near Lake Arrowhead this 4th (and weather permits) come check our Zero, P51 and F8F tearing up the sky.

If anyone will be near Truckee, CA this weekend, come checkout the air show in the Sierras, we will be participating and selling rides in the our P51 and SNJ5 (T6 Texan).  Come say hi, I'll show you around if were not busy, or you can buy me a beer after the tools and planes are parked for the day.

Actually they don't have a 24.  They have a perfect 25, 29, Boston, Spanish 109, Spit VIII, three 40's, 51, F4F, CHOG, 2 MIGs, Starfighter, 4 WWI rides, F8F, and the rest I don't remember...Korean War Bell evac helo, and that's all I remember, lol.  I don't think FiFi shares a hanger though.  When I took my Stearman ride and my Texan ride, they said she was there and I could go see her but she wouldn't be there the rest of the year.
