In 1972 or 73 there was an airshow in Galveston. One of my Class-3 customers in those days was a Colonel in the Confederate Air Force and he got me a ride in their B-17 Texas Raiders appearing at the show.

It was a thrill but when the pilot made a two-wheel landing to save wear & tear on the tail wheel, I did not know this and nearly crapped my pants!

Still a lovely memory... from some 44 odd years ago--

Ummm...those of us in Midland use the moniker “Confederate Air Force” as simple tongue-in-cheek.

We acknowledge the
^Commemorative Air Force^ as proper; it’s a West Texas thing.

And, where is your GIF of Bendy dropping bricks?

Gotta get on HULU and start watching “Black Sheep Squadron”

I’m a “Yuuge” fan of Bob Conrad.
I just finished watching WWW series.

My son and I rode in the 9-Oh-9 a few years back. The route took us over our house.

Then the pilot allowed us to stand up in the aircraft's midsection & poke out heads out into the slipstream while he stood the plane up on a wing on a pass over Moffett Field. Unforgettable.
