The give away that it's not is Red 170's don't go that fast. Obviously you had a Green 170 out in front as the camera platform for the second shot.

It's good that cell-phones have improved shutter-speeds these days, or that greeen camera-ship would have only caught a bluuurrrrr ... it was passed-by so quickly.

Just a few pics of my 55 B

Okay. I'll play. Here is N2542C on a recent trip to KHAB, Marion County Alabama.

Hamilton Alabama in Marion County is only about 50 miles from home base but an airport I had never landed. They had this really neat old tower there. I was going to climb up it to get a picture but they took the first set of stairs down. There was also a great number of wasps near the beacon as well.

A nice little airport in southern Tn. KUOS, Home base to the late Bill Kerstner

On the ramp.


The FBO

suppose this works

People always ask me how I get traction when I take off on ice.
I'll have to order a set of those

Ugh! A nose-tread! I only fly tail-treaders!!!

It is real, I've seen it at Oshkosh, where that photo was probably taken.

John, be nice now remember what mom says about making disparaging remarks about Uncle Fester's airplane.

I have had that pic in one of my computers from years back. And John you are right it seems to me like was at OSH back in the late '80s. I don't think anyone flew there with that mess hanging on it. At that time I thought the only way it could fly was with an IO360 engine conversion! !

Mine is the one in the background.

Really neat picture , but why it always that the red one seems to be lagging behind.

Because it's always easier to have the slower airplane in lead when flying formation.

Here's a couple of shot's with me & Linda at Katama Airfield, Marthas' Vineyard last Sunday.

Nice photos Joe! Thanks for sharing. Looks like a fun strip!

Here's a few photos of a recent day of flying with my family. We spent the morning at the Beach, then flew off to a Vintage Aircraft gathering in the afternoon.
