One of a flight of 47th Fighter Squadron 'Dogpatchers' A-10s recovering to base. The squadron badge, a 47 spade (the 7 is rather inconspiquous) is on the tail and both the 944th Fighter Wing and 924th Fighter Group badges are above the wing leading edge. The hog face and 'Daisy Mae' nose art finish the total.

Despite apparently having spent most of the years since its deregistration in May 2015 sitting on that very flightline, the Ercoupe still looked fine. Its registration went to a Cessna T210N in October 2020; the taildragger behind it remained unidentified.

Locally based pair of cropdusters, as far as I could find out. The one in front is N401TH, c/n 401-0875 and on the register as an AT-401 with an R-1340 radial engine. That is obviously not the case so I suspect it was converted into an AT-402.

This 1984 G-III is fitted with QTA (Quiet Technology Aerospace) Stage 3 hush kits with their nice sci-fi look. The opening just aft of the reverser doors (shiny metal) is needed to allow them to be operated while still being able to thoroughly mix high-speed exhaust gases with lower speed ambient air in the aft duct during the rest of the operation. The latter is what actually reduces noise levels.

Military duo on the ramp at Meacham on a hot Sunday evening. Fiscal year of the C-146 is debated but the elsewhere mentioned 99 is unlikely, among other things while the type seems to have entered discussions on NSAv (Non-Standard Aviation) for USSOCOM (Special Operations Command) around 2008. The Hercules Tanker, KC-130J 170275 of VMGR-352, was a rather new one, having been first noted in March 2023.

Fifi receiving maintenance in the Commemorative Air Force hangar, including of course her highly complex Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone engines, producing 2,200 hp each. Her military serial 44-62070 can be read upon close inspection, from the standard data block.

Looking splendid, with the better nose art version, regained code and original serial on the tail. Built as a DC-3 for American Airlines but not taken up, became USAAF C-49J 43-1975 instead. To N87745 in September 1976, after a handful of US registrations and one Mexican. Operated by Southern Cross Aviaton for about two decades as a jump plane, until badly hurricane-damaged. Into the airshow circuit to regain funds spent on restoration; doing pleasure flights at the photo date. Registration modestly in black below the horizontal stabiliser, not visible from this angle.

Painted and marked to represent a Royal Navy Gosling I in West Indies service. Has serial FP469 applied in addition to the colours and markings, unfortunately behind the float here and I forgot to go back and get it on photo once people had left. The real former FP469 was taken off the register in October 2013 as N700BL.

Departing back to Augusta, GA. This was one of the first CJ3s, off the line in September 2004 even before FAA certification of the type. Registered as shown since March 2005 with various owners.

Still incredible how the Whale was operated from aircraft carriers, with a maximum take-off weight of over 80,000 lbs (37 tonnes). Last served with VQ-2, coded JV-003, and went to AMARC in October 1990 as 2A0126. With the museum since November 2012 and painted with older VQ-2 markings.
