If you photoshop out the lines on the second photo it would like a real P-47 in final approach!

John, you got some great photos.  Thanks!

Sorry to hear about your plane.  More reason to build more huh?  I heard your truck is AWESOME!!  I want one!!

When you are only .67 points out of being 5th on the circle it's hard not to go for it. The winds were consistant 15 to 18 with gust to 25 or more. Got caught in a heavy gust adn lost it in the wing over. We had a wake at the edge of the circle for the recently departed..  ;D

Here are a couple of Steve in action.

Beautiful pictures, all of them.  Did not have camera, so I thank all who took pictures and posted them of the NATS.  Also Sparky does build beautiful airplanes.  Also didn't realize Steve was a lefty.  Thanks Steve for the fuel tank info.  Have fun,  DOC Holliday
