I always find it interesting when Reserve or Active air elements are based at a civil airport. Hickham AFB is directly adjoining Honolulu International Airport and shares their runways. Last year when we flew to Fresno to visit out youngest I saw the CA ANG F-15s taxiing about and their shelters over on one side of that airport. Flying in and out of Sky Harbor I’ve seen those 135s sitting at their “base”. And I do remember my dad telling me that his Air Force Reserve Bomb Wing in the 50’s was located at Long Beach Airport and his monthly drills on their B-26 Invaders at the time…

Working on positioning the stowage on the Landcruiser - need to sand the cooler top a bit. Suggestions welcome.





I'll tie it all down with coffee dyed string once glued.
