Default A thought about the F-15 photos...

Nick!

My friend, what you have just said, is so true. For me, it was my dad who
was a flight engineer flying in various types of aircraft at the time when
the "DEW LINE" radar stations were going up . . .

He even brought me along on a couple of trips delivering food, parts,
construction material, passengers, and other things that made life in the
north worth while . . .

Quite an experience, I must say.

Thanks for sharing

Jacques

There isn't really anything that great about them. In fact they could have
been much better had I not been pressed for time.... but... there is one
outstanding thing about them.

There is a little boy and his Dad talking to the pilot of the F-15 there.
The little guy had the same wide eyed expression on his face as I must
have had as a kid when I first discovered airplanes and flying. I'm
willing to bet his fascination with aircraft and aviation carried over
into adulthood and perhaps he is even contemplating a career in aviation
at this moment.
