Re: ZERO- First Flight in 80 Years!
Someone made the suggestion that it should fly off the JS Kaga. Landing would be a problem due to the lack of arresting gear.
I'm hoping they can do a formation with it, ME-109, FW-190, P-51, and a Spitfire with anything else from WW2 they can get.

Thanks for posting that! Always had a distinct affection for the Wirraway and the Boomerang - both still well remembered in Australia, but unjustly forgotten elsewhere.M.Becker wrote: ↑Fri May 09, 2025 9:18 pm I just leave that here for no particular reason.

If someone has one, yes. I think it would neat to have a flyby of the group for VE or VJ day.Rocket J Squrriel wrote: ↑Fri May 09, 2025 10:38 pmA Yak-9?jemhouston wrote: ↑Fri May 09, 2025 10:04 pm Someone made the suggestion that it should fly off the JS Kaga.
