Greetings! If anyone is interested, here are the warbirds curently nesting at our local airport here on the Outer Banks for the centenial celebration. P-51D, P-51C in Tuskegee markings, A1E Skyraider, Stinson Reliant in Royal Navy markings, PBY Catalina, C-47 in D-day, A-26, B-25, Dauntless, NA-50, P-40, Spitfire, S-2 Tracker, Two Stearmans, Eight(at least!) AT-6, Lockheed Loadstar, Beech-18, Three DC-3's, O-2 Skymaster, T-28,and the C-54 Berlin Airlft bird. There is also a Corsair in VF-17 markings parked at the Memorial site and a V-22 Osprey flew in and landed there yesterday. So far, the flyovers have had a few surprises also such as a U-2 and a NASA Canberra today. This has been a good place for an aircraft nut so far! I just hope I haven't left any aircraft out. Been hard to keep up. All aircraft listed have also been involved in the various flyovers too. Bill


heard the weather may be bad for the 10:35 flight. 10-20mph winds and rain possible.... is it gonna be carried live on cable?
