Spring Break, Part IX

These A-4 Skyhawks are painted in the colors of the Blue Angels. They have been hanging here in the museum since 1990.




This airplane is a N2S-3, a version of the venerable Stearman biplane. This particular aircraft was flown two times in January 1943 by former President George H.W. Bush during his flight training at Naval Air Station Minneapolis.


This Grumman F-14 Tomcat was the last one flown in combat (over Afghanistan in 2006) before the model was retired for good after serving the Navy for 34 years.


Here's the front entrance at Brentwood Elementary, where Rich attended third grade, in Pensacola.




This is our old house, where Roger, Gloria, Rich and Ellaina lived from the early 1970s until 1975.
