    1. Ask the Yarpies, the South African Air Force was very canny selling off their NAA Harvards only a few at a time, to keep the prices of them from lowering with a glut.

  2. Went to the Cherry Point air show back in 2001. It was a great time. Sigh. I'm too old and too poor to make the 450 mile trek now.

  3. I'm holding out for a T-28C with the BIG engine. big stinkie smokin' growling, hammer from hell of a North American Aviation aircraft. With well set up flight controls and a working air/oil separator, they are almost as nice flying as a P-51. And they are built like brick shithouses in order to get aboard.
