Wings over Houston 1992 Warbirds

Post by mudhen15 » Mon May 17, 2021 6:07 am

This was my first US Show and at the time my interest was just active military, so didn't take many warbird photos. Have tried since to find a list of warbirds that participated in the show. Any additions or corrections to my list would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Mudhen
I have checked my log for this show and can come up with a few additions military and warbird. It will take a few days to collate and then I will post.

Croaky, the serial for the AT-6 NX58245 matches an A6M2 Model 21 Zero serial.

Looking at the pictures of NX58245, they look very similar. To be fair, I would have put it down as an AT-6 as well.
