Something about that photo just isn't right... Size wise it looks off and wouldn't the B-52 be disturbing the water if it was skimming along at wave top height? I don't know but I'd to cry Photoshopped on this one :?

I am attempting to learn Tagalog since I do plan to visit Cubi Point,PI sometime in the future. You familiar with the RA-5C that was left at the former US Navy base? Well, it was dubbed the Hippy Vigi. I've been part of a small group of guys trying to get it preserved

Oh, I see.

Sorry, I haven't heard of the RA-5 on Cubi Pt. It's in Luzon, while I'm fro the Visayas Region.

Anyway, I am glad you helped restore one of America's most beautiful aircraft and kept the nature of Subic NS.

Yep, I had found my ride :big_grin: Now from what I understand, the Hippy Vigi and, other a/c left over there are going to be placed in a museum which is to be built on the former US Navy base dipicting the history of the base itself. And, I want to get up close & personal with the bird :heh:

Yeah, I got to hear about the Phillipines from the guys I served with when they were on the Midway. The "P.I." was the ultimate port to visit. Unfortunately, I never got to go!
What other planes are still there?
