i really wanted to see the F-86 and the C-47 but they canceled due to mechanical problems. i did see a ton of cool stuff though, and took some pics. my camera isn't much (canon sd630) and i'm no photographer, but if you wanna see them, go here:

i met a couple of cool guys who make photo scenery (freeware) of ontario. i look forward to checkin out their stuff.

there were several simulators there, but nothing with motion, and most were about as good as some of the better ones you guys have here, only they were all fs9. i think my favs were the mig, the stinson, and the 59 caddy.

Nice pics Cheezy...thanks for sharing. I "stole" most of them to add to my collection of aircraft images to use as wallpapers on my computer.

when i was a kid, there was a red one that ran at cecil county dragway, i think it was called "little red wrecker". it used to do the same 1/4 mile wheelie routine that hemi underglass (remember that one?) used to do.

That would've been Bill Golden's Little Red Wagon. The LRW against Bob Riggle's Hemi Under Glass was one of the most popular wheelstander matchups. Those two are probably the most remembered wheelstanders, but there were a bunch of em...that Little Blue Wagon was one of em that's seldom remembered.

i remember being a kid, and cheering hemi under glass on the tv. in my little kid mind that was the coolest car on the planet. part of me refuses to breath when i watch the old videos of it :icon_lol:
