Just got back from the rally. Sure wish I would have had more time on RB to iron out the bugs and get comfortable as there was a lack of that kind of machine. There were some less common, such as my friend Carl's nearly 15' HE 111 and I cannot detract from the oft seen examples, but after many P-51's and P-47's can you not think the flight line screams for the F8?

By the way, there was a huge F-7 sitting in a trailer, (along with the Albatross another of my "Lust List" Grummans). Never came out.

At one event the end of last season there was a Ziroli Bearcat with a Moki radial and scale landing gear on the flight line across from me. Oh, the temptation............ You really only need one kidney.
