Got a few things in this thread, first off is the Harrier...

Glacier Girl which was found under 200ft of ice and recently restored...nice bird... 8)

Now the Heritage Flight which involved a P-51, P-38(Glacier Girl), F-4, and F-16, very nice!

Ok this might be it now guys, but you may see some more, we'll see... Wink

ALL P-38s are beautiful! Seeing her fly with that P-51 is a treat, but BOTH of them flying with an F-16 and F-4? That's somethin' else!

And I like the pic of the Harrier!

It amazes me how the F-16 is not so much larger than the P-38..

Beautiful shots, Ben..

Awesome pics again

I only got to see the Heritage flight up close the first day, as i was at work the other 2 (but they did fly over me a couple times there)

Just curious where were you at to take that pic of the harrier? It appears to be from around Oshkosh Truck area? but thats blocked off during the airshow itself?

I took it from those berms across from the runway, a LOT of people go there to watch the show, and we did on Saterday, we pretty much just wanted to see the warbirds show. I'm from Appleton btw... Wink

Okay yeah, i see it now, for whatever reason when i first viewed the picture, It looked like you were north of the tower. I was over on those hills also.

And I also only was there to watch the Warbirds. Which was a bit of a let down, More fighters flew on Wed when I was at work.
