I'd love to know who came up with that name.
That's awesomely clear against a perfect blue sky, and rarely do you get to see props frozen like that.

Great shot with this sharp detail. I like the way the fast shutter speed has frozen the propellers. "V"

There were some A-26's based at Norton AFB when I was stationed there in the late 60's. They were painted black and had hangars at a remote part of the base. Super secret stuff! Outstanding shot, Lynn.
Best regards,
Dick:)
