Do you know who flew the Corsair from Galveston to Dallas?





: Yesterday afternoon, while visiting the Lone Star Flight M
: useum in Galveston, I had the pleasure of watching the Cav
: anaugh's F-4U start up engine, and take off; it made a pas
: s over the airport, then headed North. Shortly afterwards,
: a T-6 also took off. Both airplanes belonging to the Cava
: naugh museum; I was told they were on a ferry flight back
: home.
:
: The T-6 was pristine! Polished aluminum, red cowling, real
: ly nice.
:
: Also saw the Spitfire, and the fuselage of another Spit.

: The work on the Privateer continues; tail turret and side
: blister/gun positions are in place, and they look great. T
: wo old gentlemen were working on engine #1, it was funny t
