Sweet Jeff, may if time allots we can meet up. I know Eric is coming in from California last I talked to him. We have been meeting up for the last 3 or 4 years there.
 
16 B-25s! The title scene of "Catch 22" commemorated! It was awesome then, and it'll be awesome again. But hopefully a little less hairy. Gonna miss it, oh crap! Never heard that many radials all aviating together. 7+ Richter?
Cheers
