The give away that it's not is Red 170's don't go that fast. Obviously you had a Green 170 out in front as the camera platform for the second shot. :evil:
It's good that cell-phones have improved shutter-speeds these days, or that greeen camera-ship would have only caught a bluuurrrrr ... it was passed-by so quickly. :lol:

Okay. I'll play. Here is N2542C on a recent trip to KHAB, Marion County Alabama.

Hamilton Alabama in Marion County is only about 50 miles from home base but an airport I had never landed. They had this really neat old tower there. I was going to climb up it to get a picture but they took the first set of stairs down. There was also a great number of wasps near the beacon as well.

It is real, I've seen it at Oshkosh, where that photo was probably taken.

I have had that pic in one of my computers from years back. And John you are right it seems to me like was at OSH back in the late '80s. I don't think anyone flew there with that mess hanging on it. At that time I thought the only way it could fly was with an IO360 engine conversion! ! :roll:

Because it's always easier to have the slower airplane in lead when flying formation. :lol:

Here's a few photos of a recent day of flying with my family. We spent the morning at the Beach, then flew off to a Vintage Aircraft gathering in the afternoon.
