Luke Day 2016

This weekend is Luke Day at Luke Air Force Base here in the Phoenix area.

I never found the P-38 on the ground. They mentioned something about a Planes of Fame airshow that it was supposed to be at, so it must have high tailed it over to Chino.

Jack Links Screaming Sasquatch was also there, and I got some video, but never saw it on the ground to take pictures (I wanted to get detail shots for model too)

Quick question:

Luke Day 2016-kimg0482-1-.jpgLuke Day 2016-kimg0438-1-.jpg
Same type of plane?

I'm starting to think so, and I found the pic of the label, which calls it a Nanchang CJ-6A Chujaio. (anybody wanna take up the challenge of finding a 3-view?)

Oops. I knew the Warhawk. IT was the only one I recognized. Just forgot to label it.

Most of the planes that are in Tora are either BT-13s or modified T-6 Texans.

The Draken A-4 is a contract support plane for Draken International, a private contractor that flies support missions (mostly red air forces) for military training. They have a huge contract with the Marines and Navy, and oNE with the AF as well i think.
