          Wow, that shot of the P-38 with the Sharkmouth on the nacelle was the first warbird that I ever got to see in the air!

          Sure brings back memories of that 1973 Confederate Air Force show at Scholes Field in Galveston!

          Didn't it also belong to Mr. Levitz?

            Same airplane just earlier in it's career.
            I was at Reno when they lowered the gear on the ramp. Very sad.

                    Ahh, before they changed her name to "Miss TNT". Van Fossens old name for her. I still have my huge pin as a "MISS TNT FAN".

                      Good thing about coming early in the week, one day she was there, next gone. Glad I got some images. Nice artwork, the artist did well.

                        Yes, the good old days. Good thing for the air race photographers that share here.

                              Sure glad I was able to experience the hill back in the day. We had a saying, if you need a hair cut, stand-up when lefty comes by. I had some real good VHS video at one time of some of Lefty's passes and it unfortunately got overwritten :-(

                                There is some footage on youtube from back there that is pretty decent and does a good job of showing just how crazy it was.

                                but nothing will ever compare to being there. I can remember it perfectly. Low passes are awesome, but there is nothing like 8 low passes in a row!
