Thanks for the pics and captions, wonderful.

I vaguely remember hearing that about the raid. Not sure if it's true. No time to research right now.

Good morning Mayor.

Mid 70's, I'm jealous.

At the same time, said legislation will require all undocumented workers to register

Aww, there's the rub mate. They wouldn't show up. I'm more for mining the borders and hunting down the rest. ;-)

[snippy_about_it]

I always loved heading south! It's a good thing.

[snippy_about_it]

Good morning feather.

[snippy_about_it]

I get to restain the deck.

Oh, fun. What, no flamethrower?

[snippy_about_it]

Good morning PE.

[snippy_about_it]

"...there's the rub mate. They wouldn't show up."

Well, all ILLEGAL Aliens who have not received their FAUX Social Security number--and accompanying picture license--will automatically forfeit any right to the 6-month work pass and will not be allowed to register fer American citizenship when caught...and they will be caught 'cuz we're gonna be holding unscrupulous employers liable fer hiring ILLEGALS who have electronically-verifiable FAUX Social Security numbers.

There's no rub there, my good FRiend...MUD

Out here in Ventura Co., CA, we have a very active "Warbirds" society. Several guys (part of the organization formerly known as the "Confederate Air Force"(!)) keep and fly vintage warbirds and WWII-era trainers from a couple of the local airports (Santa Paula and Camarillo). They even had, until it left recently for Europe, a flying Super Constellation in "United States of America" livery ("Camarillo Connie").

Every year there is a fairly good-sized airshow here and it is not unusual to find a Liberator, Flying Fortress, and even a Mitchell circling the area for paying customers. It is a sight (and a sound) to behold.

Scenes from "30 Seconds Over Tokyo " were used in "Midway".

I may have missed it, but one of the planes took off without using flaps. If you watch video of the takeoffs, it's the one which drops down almost to the ocean when it goes off the flight deck before recovering.

That was a good flick, IIRC it concentrated mainly on "The Ruptured Duck"
