Sun N Fun Fly In/Airshow

[MAKO69]

Some pics I took at Lakeland Linder Reg. Airport's annual Sun N Fun. The last pic of Draken's TA-4K came off the web. It was on the ramp the day before I got to the show. The A-4C had just flown in and was still warm so the guys handling the plane were carfull to warn people all the shinny things are still hot to the touch. it was great to see a skyhawk up close that wreaked of both raw and burnt jet fuel.

Beautiful photos......love that old Spad, and wow, scooters on the airshow circuit! That P-39 has got to be a rare sight too. Man, have not been to an airshow in TOO long.

I'm jealous. My local airshow was cancelled this year due to military budget concerns.

 

Great pix, though! Thanks for sharing. Scooters and SPADs. Life is good.

 

What is Draken? Is that like SPECTRE? :)
