That is a Grumman F6F Hellcat, designation F6F. The Navy didn't have dashes in their designations until Fighting Bob added them in 1962. The distinctive feature to identify the aircraft is the oval shape to the cowling. While the Hellcat was produced in large numbers for WWII, only a handful remain in flying condition. -john- -- ================================================== ================== John A.

Correct, no P-38 flew Saturday. I was there prior to gates open and after
gates closed. "Michael Kube-McDowell" wrote in message news:SXcTa.108913$GL4.28518@rwcrnsc53... On 22 Jul 2003 08:25:17 -0700, (Dr Bach) wrote: Yes There were two P-38's there. One was Glacier Girl, and it was on 'static' Display, only flew in and out .. the other was Porky II From Chino California's 'Planes of Fame' And I believe, it flew every day, and was in formation with the F-15 and P-51. Ah, I never saw a second P-38 on Saturday, and I'm 99% sure no P-38 flew that day. The Heritage Flight on Saturday was F-15 and three P-51s. -- Michael Kube-McDowell - author of VECTORS, THE QUIET POOLS, and EMPRISE |
