    Already seen a few of them flying over town. The B29 I seen coming in today and a B17 heading on a north run. 30 min ride in a P51 is $1800. $3000 for a 50 min ride.

    BTW its the Southern Wisconsin Regional Airport (formerly known as Rock County Airport). Janesville City Airport closed in the late 50's.:D Theres a bunch of factories now where the Janesville City Airport used to be.

    Yeah yeah yeah. I should know better, one of my co-workers has a second job there. It's still easier to say Janesville Airport :flag:

    Just a wild guess. Used to do pest control in Madison. Only a few fire suppression system companies in the area that I'm aware of. JF Ahern and Pertzborn are the ones that come to mind right now.

    There's about a dozen or so FP contractors now in the Madison area. I work at Pertzborn

    Love seeing the warbirds fly over in formation on their way to Oshkosh. Sadly a DE Havlon DH112 crashed into a farm nearby a couple days ago, killing the pilot, seriously injuring two farm workers and killing about 60 head of cows/cattle.

    That sucks. :(

    Lost a DC3 leaving yesterday...all got out.

    Loose several planes and pilots every year going to-from Osh. Saddest part of Osh.

    Been following the flying cowboys going low and slow, makes me want to fly a backcountry plane. Want to see a STOL on steroids check out the wilga in this vid,
    He has a series on the upgrades he's done to it as well. He also has one of the fastest single engine planes too.

    Unless there's bikes in that I don't think you should have posted it.

    I hate all the people this brings to the area, but I love watching Sean Tucker practice while I have a beer on the deck. Gonna miss seeing him after this year. My daughter is his biggest fan.
