Guess who I got to meet today? - 78thFG_Doodle - 13.06.2010

I went to The Museum of Flight in Seattle, Washington and attended the American Fighter Aces and Combat Pilots Panel. I got to shake hands with P-61 Black Widow pilot Al Jones who scored three victories, Art Jeffrey P-38 and P-51 pilot who scored fourteen victories and one of my long lasting heroes Clarence E. "Bud" Anderson. I had these three gentlemen sign my Aviation memorabilia, and I recored some video from the Panel which is down below. Before I left to go to Seattle two P-51's and a B-25 flew over my house to make a few passes and my hometown's Fly In. One of my favorite birds showed up at the Museum of Flight as well, P-51D "Val-Halla". Pictures of the Mustangs and other Museum Aircraft are down below as well.

Enjoy!

Blue Skies,

Hey Doodle,

Nice photos. What kind of Corsair is that with the extended nose and bubble top?


Re: Guess who I got to meet today? - 78thFG_Doodle - 18.06.2010

F2G Super Corsair. The last of three surviving, and only eighteen were built. Thank you all for the kind words!
