Geneseo Air Show
This past weekend. Some pics:
Me with my "love" (although mine won't have this colour scheme):
My son (Cessna Bobcat):
DR1 (replica)
Heritage flight (F16 & P40)
They even had a wing walker with her Stearman
B17 Memphis Belle
Her ball turret
One of a half dozen P51's
SE5a
AT6 Texans and Harvard (same plane different countries. They had about 8 Harvards).
The yellow bird is in US insignia but I'm not sure why it's yellow. I was under the
impression only Canadian birds were yellow. Anyone?

Many US Navy and Naval Reserve SNJ's were painted Yellow while in service and it is very common on restored aircraft. Here are a few samples of yellow SNJ's while in service.

Len... We should do a road trip together for the next big air show. We can share the driving and the gas.

RE: Geneseo Air Show
Nice vids Josh. I've got some too but it seemed to take too long to get them set up here (pics are quick and easy).
I wanna go see the Reno Air Races. Can't decide on driving (3 days) or flying and renting a car. Plus it's another 2 wk holidays that would get sucked up.
But I would love to see it.
