2. One of the things I like about this neighborhood... Babylon, NY

is that any and every kind of air craft take off and land at what used to be the Republic-Fairchild plant a couple of miles up the road.
Today's sights were the Blue Angels and the Confederate Air Force.
Since the last post, from my perch on my deck, I have seen 4 P51's, the F18's several times, the B17 tiwce and possibly 2 different A4D's.

5. A Liberator...

a Flying Fortress, 4 Mustangs? Wow. I'd be more interested in seeing those airborne than the Hornets. (See those all the time...not too foar away from an Air Force base AND a small Naval Air Station).
