Throw Back Thursday warbird Parade

[Jeff Hunt]

This will be the start of a new thread and it will last for a bit as I look back to some earlier years of warbird chasing. All pictures in this thread will be pre digital which started for me in 2006 so we are looking at 2005 and earlier. Quality might not be as good but there are some gems in here, some long gone, some having changed many times over.

Hope you enjoy this Thursday trip down memory lane. If you have any questions as to location or year, just ask and I will do my best to get you the info.

Cheers,

jeff

Great stuff Jeff. Are these from prints, or transparencies ?

They are from prints....I took pictures of my pictures and this is what I got.

You don't have a scanner printer, Jeff?

 

[Airframes]

Thanks Jeff. That explains a few things - I thought that they might have been scans of Kodachrome transparencies, as the colour balance and colour temperature looked similar yo the results obtained by scanning the Kodachrome, but the saturation looked more like prints.

 

[nuuumannn]

That's better.

Man...they are excellent pics...

Nope, I do not. Thanks for fixing up the shot to show what can be done.

Cheers.

Nice shots. I may have to go through all of my old shots and add some to your thread. I have pics ranging from around 1980 to some where around 1998.

Pretty sue it started life as a T-6 but was converted to look like an NA 50 I believe. Having said all this I could be totally wrong. The picture is from Oshkosh 1996.

Todays selection consists of a few more trainers. The BT-13 was captured at Muirkirk in the mid 90s. The painted T-6s were from London Ontario in the mid 70s and the last twoT-6s from Muirkirk Ontario in the mid 90's
