Warbirds and Wheels 2024
They were a little short on warbirds this year as Cavanaugh Flight Museum usually sends a contingent. However they are moving out of Addison to Sherman and thus were absent.

I want to give taildragger war planes a blowjob. Just an amazing fleet of aircraft over the years. None are ugly.

Do they have a financing program?

There is obviously going to be a waiting list. Maybe a commercial pilot like @daysoff is in the know on the list. My guess would be 4-5 years.

CSB: I’m acquaintances with Ryan rogers (Mary Kay president) and they bought a “spot” for a G650 like 10 years ago just to sell it later at a profit. They already have a 450 and 650. Cool dude, his wife’s stepdad is my accountant. If you ran in to Ryan at a bar or golf course you’d have no idea he was a millionaire and would think the opposite.
