Finally, much as I enjoyed being there, after three days I realised it
was time to go when I heard the blatting moan of high power engines
revving up for takeoff and turned towards the runway to see two P-51's
taking off side by side and said to myself: "Oh, just two more
Mustangs..."


Bizarre, ain't it?

Here, when a T-28 does his run-up and taxies back for departure, everyone on
the airport stops to watch. Some even run around the hangars to get a
closer look, and gaze wistfully at it as he thunders down the runway.

At OSH, by the second day a T-28 doesn't even merit a glance...
