@Wrench I saw the Blue Angels flying the A4 at an airshow, in Smyrna, Tennessee, I guess in 1978 or 79. Met Greg Boyington there too. Awesome looking work there, Wrench!

Almost home, and a little worse for wear. Wondering how much booze I'll have to buy the crew chief and hoping this will buff out...

Somewhere on the border of West and East Germany, January, 1984, getting up close and personal...

82 years ago, Normandy, France...

@Muesli Thanks for sharing, bro! It is great you have soldiered on and defeated your foes and are living life with your son! In my younger days, I enjoyed Metallica a bit, but never made it to one of their concerts. I was, however, at Frankfurt Rhein Main airport twice, back around 1984 and 1985, passing thru on my way to Neu Ulm, Germany, and two year duty with the US Army in the 56th FA BDE Pershing II (tac nuke) unit. I am so glad to see a brother in arms prevailing in their battles!!

It can be a pic of exterior of the plane, a small section if the plane is more well known own, or even the entire aircraft if it is obscure or rare. It can be part of the the interior or cockpit, just enough to give someone a chance at identifying the craft. Go for it!

@Wrench From time to time, these live YouTube channels catch the Aurora running wild. This one is on the southeastern end of the Mackinac Bridge, where Lake Huron and Lale Michigan meet, looking NW. This one is in Marquette, Michigan, looking north across Lake Superior.

The orange colored light is from my barn with chickens, and in the vertical picture, the bright white light on the bottom is a car driving by...

Late autumn last year, (Nov 2025) the Northern Lights were running, well, kind of mild. Couldn't really see much, but the pictures came out cool!

@Nightshade/PR Your time frame is correct, but it is not a P51 variant.
