Re: 1/48 Hasegawa A-4M Skyhawk

Re: Bud Anderson dies at age 102
I’ve never seen Bud Andersen. But I did see Yeager at the last Edward’s AFB Open House Air Show that I was able to attend back in ‘97. He flew in a twin seat F-15 to do a 50th anniversary Mach busting to open the show. Later he walked by my family and me on his way to his seating spot in the VIP are...

Happy Victoria Day!
I had never heard of this holiday, nor knew what it was until last week, when I was told that we would be closed in honor of the date. I had to look it up.
