Last Saturday i took the 52 TD to a show. It was called "Wings and Wheels". Its a combination Fly-in and car show. Its annual at the Essex County (NJ) airport.
Mostly populated by bug Muscle and Hot Rods.
There was a category for imports.
The day was overcast with bouts of drizzle, so that had an effect on both the number of cars and the amount of Aircraft.
I got a picture of the TD in front of an F4U. Its my new Icon.
Any way I won Best of show imported.
There was a Singing group "Victory Belles". They awarded trophies.
The Award was the best part of the show.

Well done! Congrats.
 
That Corsair looks like a 3 blade F4U-1A. What Pappy Boyington flew. We had them in Norman Oklahoma. I think we had about 10 of them. Later models with 4 bladed props and higher horse power were a bit faster. :encouragement: My favorite AC! Built like a tank and could take a tremendous beating! PJ
