Avenger and B-25

Was told today at the St. Louis-Lambert airport, that tomorrow morning, the CAF's Missouri Wing B-25 "Show Me" and their TBM Avenger, will be on display. The Avenger will fly out from the Creve Coeur airport, to the CAF's hangar at the St. Charles County Airport.

At the St. Charles Co. Airport today:

A T-33 in front of the CAP building, and far in the distance, an F-15, an F-18 (mounted inverted, atop a tower) and the nose of a B-52 (mounted atop a tower, but this one, Up), apparently employed for instrument testing and probably (my guess) some radar cross section testing?

At St. Louis Lambert, impressive take off of four F-15s, one at a time, full afterburner, and the "Viking Departure" (straight up, to 10,000 ft).

Saludos!
