  1. I shouldn't go by memory anymore. CRS is full blown now. But the best way to get folks to comment on one's photos is to mis-name!
  2. Interesting that there are no unit markings on this ac. The location is NW Florida where the sand is almost white in color.
  3. Hey I have a 1977 VW Bus in my backyard that looks like that, and it runs too.
  4. I'll get one at the next meeting. Thanks Murph. David
  5. The Hampton, VA Air And Space Center has a nice F-4E hanging from the ceiling which gives one a view seldom seen. Hopefully will be of some use to F-4 modelers.
  6. My goof. Yes you are correct. Thanks for the additional info.
  7. My brother served with this unit in the late 1980's and sent me these photos of 160th helos during Persion Gulf operations. He also sent me a photo of a little bird pilot who I am trying to identify, and could possibly be one of the pilots shot down in Somalia. Any help appreciate. Here's a brief recap of the ops during Operation Prime Chance. Approaching the barge Hercules 160th SOAR Blackbird aboard Hercules. 160th Blackhawk painted to look like USN SH blackbird landing aboard ship. Little Bird pilot I'm trying to ID. Little Bird on barge Hercules
  8. You are correct. Here is a photo of the crash site.
  9. I think they were used to let the other ships in the formation when to drop bombs. The Hasegawa kit does have the area inscribed. David
  10. Check out the position lights on the rear of the starboard cowling.
  11. Looking to find more info on the Son of B**ch 2nd Class (SB2C). Any help, link or info appreciated. thank you, David O.
  12. Thanks Mike. Wow I didn't know there they were killed the following year. I remember asking the wife where they got the tires because they looked really old. Amazing what I've learned in posting photos from that airshow so long ago. I'll see if I can find some flying shots. David
  13. Outstanding Sir! Glad to see large format scans here. Thanks! Hot Air ballooning is something everyone should try at least once. David
