Well, not exactly.

Doug plans to continue to sell slides and books.  He also plans to purchase slide collections and resell them as he is doing now.  He just won't be shooting new material after the Kodachrome runs out, which will be our loss.

Yeah it's tired paint. That's #1490, another of the original group of Heritage aircraft.

In the second to last pic is a Tyndall heritage bird that looks a little forelorn, is it on death row or just tired paint?

First shot here is the view from one of the EORs where we watched some Raptors go up.

Did anyone get a closeup of the marker in front of the YF-117A for Capt. Ken Levens?

I guess somebody got there before our escorts could stop him and he proceeded to climb right into the front seat. Our PAO escort was quite unhappy about it, too.

You would think that person would be smarter than that being an alleged airplane guy.

It's not a pretty picture when you impact the hanger roof.

Here's some non-Phantom stuff........the F-117 is actually #782, the one that did the flyby at the 2005 Edwards show sporting the American flag on the bottom. They also have a false SN# on the C-model Phantom at the park.
