: Hi all,
:
: Time to offer your opinions (if you so choose). The recen
: t flurry of messages expressing excitement over the A-36 b
: eing planned to fly at Legends got me thinking. Here in t
: he states I've been privileged to see several Allison-engi
: ned Mustangs fly at airshows over the years, whereas many
: on this board indicated that the upcoming flight at Legend
: s would be a "first" for them. We've also read the occasio
: nal posting in which someone lamented the sale/exchange an
: d deportation of a favorite aircraft to another part of th
: e globe.
:
: So...which 3 flyable warbirds would you most like to see i
: mported for an upcoming airshow (Legends, Oshkosh, Wanaka,
: whatever), and which 3 would you most lament losing to an
: overseas owner?
:
: I'll go first...
:
: IMPORT:
: 1) BBMF Lancaster (to fly formation with CWH's Lanc.)
: 2) Gloster Gladiator
: 3) Ki-100 (oops, she's not flyable, right? Well, it's my q
: uestion so I get to bend the rules.)
:
: DON'T GO:
: 1) B-29 "Fifi" (just never looked right in rondels)
: 2) Kermit's Marauder
: 3) Any P-63 (bad things seem to happen in Europe)
:
: Have fun,
: Dan
