| Unknown (cn Unknown) Another marginal picture due to heat, haze and distance, the subject matter is still cool- A TWA 707 taxiing by A Delta 727 on its way to the runway for departure at CLE. Scanned from a print I took in August of 1981. | |||

| N252US (cn 19971) At the very limits of a passable photo due to haze and distance, I nonetheless liked how much rubber got smoked during this landing at CLE in August of 1981. Taken from the parking lot on Brookpark Road. Bet he shaved off a few plys on those tires! | |||

| N3312L (cn 45707) Photographed from the old observation parking lot on the north side of Brookpark Road, it was a bad day for photography- but for some reason I shot a full roll of film on this trip. Though the quality is not good due to hazy, cloudy and hot conditions, the subject matter is still neat. This DC-9-14 was absorbed into the NW fleet after the merger of Republic and NW in 1986. | |||

| Unknown (cn Unknown) I took this photo on a horribly hazy day at CLE in August of 1981. I would have tossed it out, but now, 32 years later, I felt it worthwhile to post if only for the subject matter. I could not make out the reg number with certainty, I know it is in the range of N9XXXU. | |||

Private Grumman F8F-2/G58B Bearcat |
Cleveland - Burke Lakefront (BKL/KBKL) USA - Ohio, August -, 1981 |

| N700A (cn 1262) Here is an interesting one- technically, this is not an F8F-2 Bearcat, but caries a civilian designation of G58B. Built in 1950 This aircraft was never delivered to the Navy, but was instead used by Grumman for various duties (executive play-toy). Later owned by Bill Fornoff, he and his son Corky performed aerobatics in two of these aircraft. Sadly, Bill was killed in a crash in N700C, but Corky kept N700A flying. This aircraft performed in the 1980 Cleveland Air Show, and from best I can tell stayed in Cleveland for a year when I snapped this picture in August of 1981. Later owned by Steve Hinton, this aircraft now resides with Pond Warbirds in California in incorrect navy colors. Can you imagine such a gem of an aircraft just sitting behind a hangar at Burke with nothing between it and the public but a chain link fence? | |||
