"Phil Rhodes" wrote in message . .. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-1_Skyraider I heard the story of Major B. F. Fisher on the Military Channel, and I wish I could find a link that covers his Medal of Honor take off on a short runway, under fire, with Major Meyers aboard. He tells his own story, and it was a good one. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard_F._Fisher Yes, it must be quite an aircraft. "M. B." wrote in message news:h5%Wg.3823$e65.625@trnddc05... Anybody know what the max trap of a Spad was? Don't know much about this bird but I walk past one every day. Seems like it would've been a good airplane. -MB Here's a picture of Fisher's plane in Dayton, including a link to the Museum page. (The AF Museum just redid their site and things are hard to find on it.) Bob McKellar
