I thought I’d lost these pics. A few months before he died, we had a chance to take Dad to a local airshow and let him see a TBM and an F8F (both types that he flew in his youth).

That’s a great picture of Pretty Polly. Unusual aircraft type, but still, she’s a pretty girl. One of my favorite planes.
That’s great, xbrad. Glad you found them.
A TBM off of the CARD! ( I just read Hunter-Killer by Y’Blood, about the CVEs in the Atlantic theater.) There really was something special about Grumman.
The photo with the B-17 with the P-38 parked in front makes you realise just how big a P-38 was!
Those are wonderful! Thanks for sharing.. What a treasure for you to have now. The only thing missing was a pic of you….
Strange seeing an S-2 turboprop. I’m guessing that was your pop in front of the TBM. I lost mine in December ’90.
That was dear old Dad. I can’t tell you how moved he was to see those old warbirds from his youth.
And yeah, a TurboTracker does look and sound funny.
