    Love this concept Jim. I wonder if that was the A-4 flying over last weekend here in So. California. I took a lot of history in college in between the core courses we had to take for my major. Love history. Just incredible how time stood still on a lot of these before/after pics. Brings back good memories. I am going to have to start scanning all I have before they deteriorate, great idea in how you presented this. Excellent.
