Some of the static displays at this event were also flying displays later. Here are some of the aircraft that were out and on display.


Joe Peppito moves the C-46 "China Doll" (N53594) into position next to the C-131 Samaritan (N131CW) while Eric Lange watches the wing.


Jason Somes' T-6 (N8540P) and the CAF  SNJ-5N (N89014).



Mark Russell's T-34B Mentor (N341MR).


The CAF SNJ-5 (N89014) and it's little twin, a scale model of it.


The morning sunlight provided near-perfect lighting for the nose art on China Doll.

The T-6 of Jason Somes is in position as Chris Rushing's SNJ (N86WW) "Sugarfoot" arrives.


Mark Matye tows his T-28 (N548NA) to the CAF ramp for display. He would provide some great flybys later in this airplane.
