And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Hi CW, Go to the "Reno Air Races" in Sept. and you will see!!! T-6's (Stock!!!... no mods.!!!) Racing!! All the other classes can tweek and mod but not the T-6's!!! Pull up the "National Championship Air Races ..(NCAR)" on he net!!! You will see!! skybill
1954-55 the Navy was still using these at Pensacola....went there with my Dad when he was bidding a job at the time, and I still remember seeing them taxiing by at Forest Sherman field....wasn't long after that they went to T-28s, which to this day is still one of my all time favorites....to think jet pilots took primary training in these radial engine beauties....
That is a great pic.

Hiya, Skybill! Good advice on Reno. I went twenty years ago and enjoyed it.
