I'd love to see one in person, flying or static. Just a beautiful plane.
There is one nearby to us at Pima

I've considered making that trip. Maybe when it cools down a bit

Yeah, wait until October at least. The outdoors collection alone can take several hours to properly walk through.

Is that an N3N above the F7F, Carlos?

I can’t honestly say. I don’t recall all the planes that I saw there.

I've always liked the look of the Tigercat too. I have a friend who flew fire for a long time who lost two fellow pilots in them, though. Very unforgiving of engine problems on takeoff. Definitely in the dangerous zone of the hot/crazy index.

Looks amazing, I see it's a bit of a tail sitter XD
