Downwind66 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Cool out, no snow, though! My choice of local flight here, keeps me very warm with the heat I get from that large engine out front! Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downwind66 Posted March 12, 2020 Author Share Posted March 12, 2020 I enjoyed that video Thunder over Michigan, 11 of these are starting up at the same time, unfolding the wings the same time, very well "put together!" Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rupert Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Nice shot! And yes, I found the radial recip. furnace we sat almost atop of on the front of my CH-34 put out a lot of heat! Sadly I was in Vietnam or near Yuma most of the time I experienced it! :o Michael Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick :cool: We usually have a Thunder Over Louisville with air shows, fire works, etc. over the Ohio River each year two weeks before the Kentucky Derby. One of the neat things is, a a veteran with friends in the local Air Guard, I usually spend at least a day wandering around the parked aircraft, talking with crews, and occasionally hitching a ride on some of the military birds there.

NMLW Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 The Corsair will melt the snow for you Rick. :cool: :) Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share Posted March 15, 2020 Thanks Michael and Larry! Larry - I bet you're right! I get a kick out of flying both the Corsair and the Mustang! Both are a "hoot" to fly! I know the pilots of WWII had a job to do, but at least the country gave them great aircraft to get the job done! Thanks Larry...............
