Saturday my daughter and I went to the gathering of the 475 Fighter Group at the Planes of Fame Air Museum in Chino. We met Wheelsup (Brian) there and had a fantastic day. The lecture was given by four of the P-38 fighter Pilots of the 475th and one Crew Chief. I can't think of the words to describe what we felt listening to the events of the war as told by the pilots who were there and flew the missions, I guess what was really eating at me was the knowledge that these great men of a heroic generation are rapidly leaving us along with their stories and words of the past. After the lecture we went out to watch a fly over of the P-38 "Honey Bunny".
After a few photos of the P-38 (123 of them) we again met up with Brian and Greg Pascal. Greg was ever so kind as to give my daughter and I a personal tour of the hangers and area, it was absolutely fantastic, Greg is a very informative and makes a great guide, he explained everything and more about the aircraft , engines and history of the Planes of Fame Museum. OK, I will stop all this jabbering and get to the pictures.
I just received a new lens in the mail on Friday and had a great chance to test it out, so I did get a lot of bad shots but also some good ones,. Cheers
