    Thanks Jason. That was cool.

    I’ve gotta stop watching these on my iPhone and move to a bigass TV with some monster subwoofers...

    Cheers,
    Pete

        Love those 'Cats. Who owns BB now - Lewis? Doesn't Slattery have a couple? Does Big Bossman still exist in the same shape as in the video, i.e. color, noseart?

          BB is the silver La Patrona. Rod has her and Here Kitty Kitty, Slattery has 374 & 375, Friedkin now has Bad Kitty, and Walton that owns the Super Corsair owns another airworthy one. Last one is “JC” and I’m curious to know where it ends up after we lost Clark a few weeks back

            Where did Greenamyer's end up? Is that the one Walton has now?

                That would be 374. Walton’s I never really did find out the history of. After being a fire tanker I’m not sure who owned it. It had the white/green paint bands around the cowls so it was pretty distinct.

                  That one is the old Mike Bogue/Gary Flanders ex-tanker #40, N7195C that Bob Love was flying around the Bay Area back in the '80s.

                    Bob Love, that's who I was trying to remember. I knew one of the bigger name warbird guys in CA flew it around after the tanker days. Thanks Lon

                      I typed up a response and poof, gone. Here it goes again. Anyone know if Kermit owns an F7F? More often than not in Kermit's videos, he can be heard at some point saying "I have one of those, yep, got one of them". So, the new game invented with all this time on our hands is... Does Kermit have one? I've certainly never seen a Tigercat Kermie Cam, but maybe there's one hiding over at Golden Hill.

                        Yes, Kermit has one.

                          Thanks Lon. Sounds like a project that won't grow legs anytime soon.
